I started to created a DNS monitoring & validation solution called DNS Spy and I'm happy to report: it has launched! It's been in private beta starting in 2016 and in public beta since March 2017. After almost 6 months of feedback, features and bugfixes, I think it's ready to kick the tires.
This year, and for the second time in a row, Bleemeo has supported a team of INP Toulouse (the engineering school of two of our founders) during the EDHEC Sailing Race. This year the race was in Arzon in French Britany. During the race, we provided them a tracker composed of a Raspberry Pi and a GPS antenna. Then all along the race, it was reporting data in Bleemeo and we were displaying the boat data on a map.
There’s a variety of critical website change monitoring tools that should be leveraged for business and mission-critical websites. Such tools and software eliminate the need for manual website monitoring, and automatically detect important changes and updates and then alert business users and technology owners.
The main feature of HostTracker monitoring service is the regular checks of websites with monitoring intervals from 1 minute. Moreover, the HostTracker’s dedicated global monitoring checkpoints network currently includes more than 140 servers all over the world.
We use Node.js extensively in our production apps. When we started with golang, the major discussion point amongst us was, for a beginner how golang dependency management is supposed to work. Vendoring was the only method for golang dependency management. In this, you save a local copy of the dependent libraries that your application shall use. In Node.js world, dependency is managed using packages.json.
On February 28, 2017, Amazon S3 in the us-east-1 region suffered an outage for several hours, impacting huge swaths of the internet. StatusGator was impacted, though I was able to mitigate some of the more serious effects pretty quickly and StatusGator remained up and running, reporting status page changes through the event. Since StatusGator is a destination for people when the internet goes dark, I aim to keep keep it stable during these events.
We are happy to announce today that Bleemeo's smart agent has been accepted into the Docker Certification Program, a framework for partners to integrate and certify their technology to the Docker Enterprise Edition (EE) commercial platform.

Automatically detect network failures and reconnect with AutoSSH. This tip lets you create a persistent connection between two servers, or between your desktop and server, and have it automatically re-connect.
The fetch API allows you to make network requests similar to XMLHttpRequest (XHR). We already wrote a blog about how Fetch API are simple and yet powerful compared to XHR. Atatus now supports Fetch API monitoring out of the box. You don’t need any special configuration to measure performances of the Fetch API.
We’ve updated Instrumental’s pricing to be fully metered and we replaced our 30-day trial with an entirely free Development Plan. While Instrumental’s pricing has been usage-based for a long time, this new model eliminates our plans and minimum spend requirements. With no minimum monthly spend, Instrumental is now a much better fit for smaller projects.
