What it does

Gremlin Free provides a hosted Chaos Monkey as-a-Service to help companies identify system weaknesses before they become outages. You can use Gremlin Free to randomly shut down servers and simulate CPU spikes on your way to building more reliable software.

Reduce downtime, improve resilience, and protect revenue. Gremlin helps engineering teams find and fix reliability risks before they become expensive outages.

Find and fix availability risks before they impact your users with Gremlin's Chaos Engineering and reliability monitoring, testing, and reporting tools. Today's ephemeral and complex systems are a minefield of reliability risks, including unknown dependencies, misconfigured autoscaling, missing or broken redundancies, untested resilience hacks, and non-compliant architecture. Gremlin is built to find and fix these risks so you can deliver the availability your users demand at the speed and scale of today's enterprise technology organizations. Run Chaos Engineering experiments and reliability tests safely and easily. Prioritize risks and communicate them across the organization to drive…from gremlin.com

    A web debugger an ex-Cloudflare team has been working on for 4 years2024 · ▲886

    Hey HN, I wanted to show you a product a small team and I have been working on for 4 years. https://jam.dev It’s called Jam and it prevents product managers (like I used to be) from being able to create vague and un-reproducible bug tickets (like I used to create). It’s actually really hard as a non-engineer to file useful bug tickets for engineers. Like, sometimes I thought I included a screenshot, but the important information the engineer needed was what was actually right outside the boundary of the screenshot I took. Or I'd write that something "didn't work" but the engineer…

    Hey HN, we’re Nico and Arseniy, co-founders of Superlog (https://superlog.sh). We're building a self-installing, self healing observability tool meant not to be opened. It has a wizard that daily sets up proper logging and an agent that investigates errors and opens PRs. Super short demo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xFhU9Mk247M. In our earlier startups, we tried Sentry, Datadog, Grafana, Dash0, and nothing was good enough. Proper telemetry and alerting still requires a ton of manual setup. We struggled with adding good logs, so debugging was tough, especially as…

    I’ve been building a small hardware box that runs local LLMs like Mistral, Qwen and Llama, and exposes an OpenAI compatible API on your local network. There’s no cloud, no login system and no telemetry. I built it because a lot of small firms want ChatGPTbstyle tools but can’t use cloud AI for privacy or compliance reasons, and most don’t want to deal with GPU servers, drivers, Docker or model configs. The aim is to make local AI feel as simple as plugging in a router. Right now the box boots into a very simple web UI where you choose a model and start using it. The API follows the OpenAI…

    Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…
