- ransom1538 5y agoThat is just a static github page with html. These are just green dots on a screen.
- Twisell 5y agoWell make sense to me to host your status page outside your main infrastructure.
- oxplot 5y agoA lot of system status pages are updated by humans who will verify issues before reporting them. Main reason is to avoid overly surface every minor and transitory issue to public view.
- _joel 5y agoQuite easy to verify if the entire developer site is down though, non?
- brianpan 5y agoIt's very easy, except when it's hard. Also, it's never easy. Joking, but only somewhat. That's because the easy cases are handled by automation, etc. If you knew it could happen, you probably planned for it. Figuring out what the issue is, if there really is an issue, and the scope of the issue can take some time.
- Someone 5y agoNo. “Doesn’t respond for me” doesn’t imply “down for lots of people”. If you discover that foo.com doesn’t respond, it takes a while to figure out whether that’s on your system, in your network, in the city, etc. Yes, you would set up multiple hosts across the world polling that server, but that adds complexity. Maybe, those pollers decide the site is down because of a bug in your network setup, while the rest of the world happily uses your services.
- _joel 5y agoPingdom seem to manage it. Pretty sure one of the FAANGS could to. I appreciate an obscure managed service might be a bit diffcult, but main developer site?
- Someone 5y agoMy response was to “Quite easy to verify if the entire developer site is down though, non?” I never claimed it’s impossible, just that it isn’t “quite easy”, especially to check that the “entire developer site is down”. The home page may be down, with the rest being up, the home page may be up, with the rest being down, etc.
