I am actually getting ready to go to a meeting today to discuss server alerts. Great time. Best, joe@greentoe.com

  @jmarrapodi, great to hear!. Every server on an average generates about 5 alerts per month and if they are not handled properly, they will cause outages. In fact, amazon (AWS) and facebook (https://www.facebook.com/note.php?note_id=10150275248698920 https://www.facebook.com/note.php?note_id=10150275248698920) built internal tools to handle this exact problem. Our mission is to democratize it for everyone!

      This was based on empirical survey with over 80 companies (startups, medium size and big enterprises), and this is also in line with our personal experience managing thousands of servers at AWS.

        The thing about averages is it hides the good and the bad into one lump number. If your systems were forced to rapidly scale up, maintain various features, and need to refactored/rearchitecured, your probably seeing more than 5 alerts a month. Which makes something like neptune.io usefull since customizing the response based on alerts is your only choice in the short term. Not many if at all any services out there offer solutions to poorly functioning systems. And just to add, at the pace some startups grow, you'll never have a perfect set of systems in place, so you just deal with things as they come. Great systems are a luxury for startups.
