On the first of every month we generate an extensive PDF report for every site. This report contains a summary of all check results for the month and is a snapshot available to you and your team via email and the Oh Dear dashboard. We keep the report history so each month can be viewed in a browser or downloaded as a PDF. This report can also be emailed to any email address - not just team members - perfect for keeping your customers informed.

SQL is just for querying relational data, right? Well, not necessarily! With our SQL Analytics feature, you can run SQL queries over all types of data from all kinds of backend stores. This gives you incredible flexibility and power – you can even combine different types of entity (e.g. a pull request and a pipeline run) in a single query. Equally, I could have datasets with job tickets from Jira, ServiceNow and Zendesk and combine them in a single query.

APIs are a big part of how modern applications or services work. They act as bridges, allowing systems to talk to each other and share data. Whether it's logging into an app or making an online payment, an application programming interface helps make that process smooth. But what happens when an API suddenly stops working? Even a short outage can cause a disruption. It can break features, delay operations, and impact users and businesses alike.

There are few things that can derail developer productivity and undermine your pipeline like a flaky test. Testing is the backbone of a good development process, ensuring that your code is as accurate and usable as possible. When these tests point towards faulty development, the impacts can be significant. This information is predicated on an assumption, however – the assumption that what the test says is accurate.

When I first started writing Go software a little over a decade ago, one of the features I found particularly intriguing was the ability to build statically-linked binaries for multiple operating systems and architectures without a lot of headache. This build toolchain feature is widely relied upon by nearly all Go developers, especially when needing to build multi-arch container images destined to be run in a Kubernetes cluster consisting of amd64 and/or arm64 nodes.
