Recently, I saw some discussion online about how flow data, like NetFlow and sFlow, doesn’t provide enough network visibility compared to doing full packet captures.

Status pages are a clever solution to bundle all your services, and see the status of them at one sight. We at iLert took this one step further: why not build your status page as code using Terraform? We want to show you how we make it possible, and how you can set it up for your own infrastructure - a real SaC solution.

Welcome to day three of our very first Launch Week! The last two days we shared how alerting became so much better and how we moved one level up by completing our SOC 2 Type 1 audit. Are you curious what’s next? I’ll tell you, but first let’s set the stage and look at Microsoft’s Playwright.
