We use pepperreport.io to have information about how every release impact our reponse time. It doesn't require anything on our stack and is a correct estimation of the impact for our users.

I'm pretty sure that Google have paid lawyer to check if the trademark was free before using it. If they are using it, they are confident about any attacks on their use. Good luck.

Nice tool David! Your UI is great!
Re:Ask HN: Time-series DB for event sourcing? on Monday February 04, 2019 @08:26AM (#19076138)
I've already look at http://pumpkindb.org/ but finally use TrailDB. Else, there's also the leading InfluxDB for Time-Series DB. But if the volume isn't very high, a MySQL/PGSQL could satisfy no?
Similar to this, I was looking for some inspiration about a landing page, I've found the top 1000 SaaS (https://saas1000.com/) with some data about them: Location, employees, 6 month growth and if they have some investisors.
Re:Ask HN: How do you track your production deployments? on Monday January 28, 2019 @04:39AM (#19016216)
We use pepperreport.io to track our releases or infrastructure deployments. It also gave us metrics about performances. Basically it call their API with our release name.
Yes, monitoring an infrastructure uptime seems outdated. Teams now need performance and release monitoring.
This year I'm going to release a SaaS. I've already create many website and saas, but the last one was 5 years ago, and all of them have mitigate results. Actually I'm working on it since August 2018, reading many many article and youtube videos on how to launch a SaaS product. So maybe this project will be ok.

I'm working on a service to identify underperforming releases of applications (by monitoring their speed and behaviors). It's an issue that is encountered in my current job when IT teams deliver many releases every day. I guess those reports will sound bad for some IT guys so I've call it PepperReport(.io)

I've to do the same, and I couldn't find what I need, so I've made a kind of probe using aws lambda and influxdb. It allow configuration by YAML, dynamics headers and query params, and track your deployments (infra and release). It's called PepperReport.io, I could give you an invitation code if you wan't to try it.
Re:Saas Monitoring and Alerting on Tuesday January 22, 2019 @04:09AM (#18967042)
Couldn't find any solution that match my requirements (manage checks with YAML files, dynamic headers and release or infrastructure deployment monitoring), so I've made my own :/ It's in beta test actually, but I would love to have opinions on pepperReport.io

Really nice article! Didn't know about the .editorconfig file. Thanks for the tips! Just wondering how are you deploying your php apps now ?
Great! But can't wait for a probe on Europa liquid ocean :D

Fun! Works well in chrome. Stuff are cool but a go back (history-1) or go to homepage link would improve this page I think.
