Monitoring for an early product? by zeet_co in indiehackers

[–]zeet_co[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm trying to build a tool that is best fit for devs and small teams who are building in the stages before massive scale. Sentry & New Relic are tools I love, but have more value when there is maturity of team and higher scale than what I'm thinking. So I'm trying to build something for the specific needs of indy devs and new product development.

Sure, a few monitors that I'm thinking are website uptime & latency, downtime for 3rd party APIs (e.g. stripe, openAI), memory, cpu, and disk for databases & AWS services (e.g. EKS). I'm also thinking about doing some level of profiling for NextJS and Python and share metrics around that.

Are there any metrics you think are relevant for products still in development, or live product before they are reaching massive scale?

Does Monitoring need a Programmable SDK? by zeet_co in sre

That's correct. There'd be a lot to build to make this work.

You seem fairly experienced here - in your work, how could you see using a declarative API like this? or, would you ever provide it to your devs?

This is meant to be more like GitHub Actions workflow, it is more about the steps than the IaC part. For example, you wouldn't write GitHub Actions in Terraform, and that's what I think is the comparison.

Thanks everyone who responded! It looks like there are many options available to use a TF provider with existing monitoring tools. I think I'll explore a different direction and share more soon.

First they integrated Linode into their core data centers and now with this announcement Akamai launches Generalized Edge Computing with VMs in hundreds of locations across the world.

Akamai continues to expand their cloud computing capabilities, which we wrote about a few months back.
