Weekend Project - Website Uptime Monitoring Service

A couple of months back, I had come across this promising-looking app on github - a website uptime monitoring service[1] built with Node.js, MongoDB, and Bootstrap, so I had whipped up a DO droplet[2], registered a (free) .tk domain[3] and after a weekend of messing about (mainly via ssh), had created a (stock) working service (and then promptly forgotten about it): http://monitup.tk:8082/dashboard/checks Turned out to be a lot better than I had expected! Now, while there are many such (free and paid) services available out there, I do think one more can't hurt,…

What it does

In the maker’s words, at launch

A couple of months back, I had come across this promising-looking app on github - a website uptime monitoring service[1] built with Node.js, MongoDB, and Bootstrap, so I had whipped up a DO droplet[2], registered a (free) .tk domain[3] and after a weekend of messing about (mainly via ssh), had created a (stock) working service (and then promptly forgotten about it): http://monitup.tk:8082/dashboard/checks Turned out to be a lot better than I had expected! Now, while there are many such (free and paid) services available out there, I do think one more can't hurt, especially with some more value additions thrown-in, that I have thought about. What do you all think? All comments, ideas, suggestions welcomed. :-) Note: As of now, you can freely add site/s too.

    A few months ago, i was looking for a simple uptime monitor service to monitor my websites, but i wanted some extra features that i couldn't find anywhere. These aren't wild features, but oddly enough couldn't find a service that was easy to setup, cheap, and that could do simple uptime mointoring for databases (sql & mongodb), docker containers, rabbitmq queues and os memory/cpu. It's only when i was almost done that i realized uptime monitoring services had become something of mania in the indiehacker/solopreneur world. Anyways, hoping it can provide value to some of you.…
