24 alternatives to Root Cause as a Service – Never dig through logs again

Hey Folks – Larry, Ajay and Rod here! We address the age old painful problem of digging through logs to find the root cause when a problem occurs. No-one likes searching through logs, and so we spent a few years analyzing 100’s of real world incidents to understand how humans troubleshoot in logs. And then we built a solution that automatically finds the same root cause indicators a human would have had to manually search for. We call it Root Cause as a Service. RCaaS works with any app and does not require manual training or rules. Our foundational thoughts and more details can be found…

Root Cause as a Service automatically identifies root causes in application logs without requiring manual training or predefined rules. Built by analyzing hundreds of real-world incidents, it works with any application… Below are 24 products that do a similar job, ranked by how close each is in meaning and then by launch-day votes.

    Hey HN, I am building an open source platform to make on-call better and less stressful for engineers. We are building a tool that can silence alerts and help with debugging and root cause analysis. We also want to automate tedious parts of being on-call (running runbooks manually, answering questions on Slack, dealing with Pagerduty). Here is a quick video of how it works: https://youtu.be/m_K9Dq1kZDw I hated being on-call for a couple of reasons: * Alert volume: The number of alerts kept increasing over time. It was hard to maintain existing alerts. This would lead to a lot…

    I've been an on-call engineer at startups where "incident management" meant someone panic-creating a Slack channel called #fire-fire-fire, or all incidents handled in the #incidents channel at the same time... and the postmortem was whatever someone remembered to write in Notion three days later. So I built a Slack bot to fix my own workflow. Figured I'd share it. What it does: "/incident start sev2 API latency spike" creates a dedicated channel, invites whoever's on-call, pins the details, and starts recording a timeline. When you run "/incident resolve", it uses GPT-4 to analyze…

    hey guys, wanted to show one of my side projects i just made public. the idea is basically another osint tool for pentesters and bug bounty hunters. it watches certificate transparency logs and checks newly-seen domains for exposed stuff like .env files, open .git dirs, config files, db dumps and so on, and puts whatever it finds into a searchable db. you just search a domain (or part of one) and see what's exposed. it's read-only and free. one thing i've been thinking about adding is a way to register for certain keywords and get notified when something new shows up for that search. would…
