UltraHook – Receive webhooks while behind a firewall
- twalling 13y agoCan I host it myself?
- jamespollack 13y agothis is the most useful service i've personally come across in months -- thanks!!
- veesahni 13y agoIt's a pain I've dealt with over and over again for a long time. I'm glad others find it useful too :)
- mskierkowski 13y agoYears back I worked on the Azure Service Bus (http://www.windowsazure.com/en-us/develop/net/how-to-guides/service-bus-relay/ http://www.windowsazure.com/en-us/develop/net/how-to-guides/...) which has a feature called "Relay". Except in the MS case its way more complicated and .NET-specific. Cool stuff.
- vyrotek 13y agoI'm not the author of UltraHook, I just found it interesting because I once built something very similar for a customer to allow access to a DB behind a firewall. Also, I'm literally implementing Azure ServiceBus Queues right now! My startup has been on Azure since the beta days and I'm migrating a lot of things that used the TS Queues to the SB Queues. We were actually invited to Redmond a few years ago to talk to various Azure teams and got a sneak peek intro to the new ServiceBus features. Of course we were all under NDA so we couldn't really share our excitement at the time. It seems that you've moved on to a few new adventures since your time at Microsoft. Good luck with everthing :)

- veesahni 13y ago(I'm the author of UltraHook) Note that UltraHook communicates over HTTP and not SSH, so it will work through most corporate firewalls too. It's focused on webhook tunnelling instead of general purpose TCP tunnelling.
