noty is a my side project that I have been working on three month. It's an uptime monitoring system, like pingdom or Apex Ping. I'm in a very early stage and lots of feature is still missing. I build it because I cannot found any service that will SMS/Call me when site is down/slow, and have a simple to use interface. Apex is what I found that's very cool, but it lacks of SMS/Phone alerting when I tried. I also open source it because of working as a DevOps, I feel the pain of all monitoring tool. Nagios, Icinga, Sensu all rely on a third party to do SMS/Phone alert such as PagerDuty. So I build this to help everyone who don't want to pay for my service can install the whole thing and run it themselves. It lacks of document now, but that'll on my roadmap for next month. A long the way, I realize I need more than that such as monitoring worker/cron/security(check if open MongoDB/Redis port accidently, alert when user SSH into server). I also want to monitor uptime for internal service(inside a VPC or behind a firewall) as well. Those are thing on my next list, and seamless bot intergration so you can manage everything from your slack/bot channel. Because at the end of the day, all we want for an uptime monitoring is alert. Charting is nice to have but alert is the most important thing. I want the service is just something like set and forget. Simple add the bot, tell it to monitor some service, and it message you when the service is down. So that's is on next roadmap. At this moment, noty is just yet another uptime monitoring tool. I plan to make the development transparency(issues/roadmap) and 100% open source all the component, including any infrastructure setup. If you signed up and want to use SMS, but don't want to subscribe to a plan yet, just send me an email and I will assign free SMS credit for your testing. Thank you for your time and looking forward to your feedback. You can also hit me directly at vinh@noty.im.
