    Hi HN, Mike and Warren here! We've been building HyperDX (hyperdx.io). HyperDX allows you to easily search and correlate logs, traces, metrics (alpha), and session replays all in one place. For example, if a user reports a bug “this button doesn't work," an engineer can play back what the user was doing in their browser and trace API calls back to the backend logs for that specific request, all from a single view. Github Repo: https://github.com/hyperdxio/hyperdx Coming from an observability nerd background, with Warren being SRE #1 at his last startup and me previously…

    I've been a long-time Cloudflare user, but sometimes I just want a global load balancer without the lock-in and with full configuration control (e.g., some Cloudflare rules require an enterprise plan). I love Caddy for its easy configuration, and that's why I created Novnaode. It makes it easy to launch hosted Caddy instances (with Nginx coming soon) and puts you fully in control of how to manage the configurations. No more being restricted by enterprise tiers or limited configuration options - just simple, powerful, and flexible global load balancing. Check it out here:…

    Hi HN, Mike and Warren here! We're excited to share some (early) work towards our next major version of HyperDX. HyperDX makes it easy to visualize/search logs & traces on top of Clickhouse (so incident & bug investigations hopefully go by a little easier). For example, if a team is thinking of migrating to Clickhouse for their observability data warehouse [1][2][3] usually due to cost or data privacy reasons, they can easily throw HyperDX on top to do the UI layer for analysis and dashboarding in a dev-friendly way (aka not needing to type paragraphs of SQL to find some logs) Over the…

    I am currently working on a larger project that needs a short-lived HTTP "auth" based on a separate, out-of-band authentication process. Since every allowed IP only needs to be allowed for a few minutes at a time on specific server names, I created this project to solve that. It should work with any Redis-compatible database. For the docker-compose example, I used valkey. This is mostly useful if you have multiple domains that you want to control access to. If you want to allow 1.1.1.1 to mywebsite.com and securesite.com, and 2.2.2.2 to securesite.com and anothersite.org for certain TTLs,…

    CRProxy is a new reverse web proxy service. We have a generous free plan that includes the ability to use custom domains and semi-custom sub-domains. We have reasonably priced plans with good bandwidth and no additional usage charges. Please give it a try and let me know what you think. Thank you, David

    Hey everyone! Over the past two years I threw myself back into full-time engineering with a simple goal: write code that gives back to the community. After a lot of late-night FOMO (“AI will do it all for us, right?”) and some painful production incidents, I finally turned my weekend project into an open-source library.
