I like the idea of an aggregated status page.
How are you getting the 'Reported Status', are you scraping their status pages?
I tried to build something similar a while ago, but found that some companies (looking at you AWS) required a licence and authentication to get to their status APIs.
Do you have plans to add more services?
- colinbartlett 5y agoYou might be interested in a project of mine then: StatusGator is a status aggregator.
- pimterry 5y agoExactly, it's just a very quick hack, and scraping and parsing is 'good enough'. Not pretty or long-term reliable, but it does the job. Very happy to take suggestions for other services - any ideas? What other critical dev infrastructure goes down a lot?
- davethedevguy 5y agoNothing against scraping at all, I think that's probably the only real way to do this until more companies have a (free) status API.. assuming scraping is within the ToS of course ;) I had a few others on my list; Azure, Office 365, Stack Overflow. You have the big ones already though I think.
