I'm a solo SaaS guy, and my "shop" doesn't need "watching". By design. Most of this was accomplished by simply picking a stack that doesn't ever fall down on me, and the rest was by watching for things that might flake out and either fixing the flake or replacing them with less flaky things. As such, I get maybe one incident a year where I'll walk briskly across to the office to fix something that could do with addressing today rather than next week. But it's never anything as dramatic as the entire site being down. Most often it's the result of Google having shipped a new version of Chrome that breaks some 10 year old feature of their own browser. The whole goal of the SaaS business stuff was to maximize my vacation time, so anything that got in the way of, say, taking an entire month off to crew a sailboat across the Darien Gap was a non-starter. So I don't have a pager. Mostly because I've gone out of my way to ensure there will never be anything to page me about. I've written at length about this all here: https://www.expatsoftware.com/articles/happiness-is-a-boring-stack.html https://www.expatsoftware.com/articles/happiness-is-a-boring...
