My preferred application stack that allows me to iterate rapidly. Simplicity, documentation and robustness preferred. Even in AI age I would not maintain an alternative to these in my company.

My main stack: NodeJS, TS, React, Next.js, MongoDB, PostgreSQL, Redis & Kafka

    Samed Kahyaoglu’s note

    Only git provider I would like to work with. Open source support, visibility, free features and worthy paid services work reliably.

  2. Drumbeats monitors cron jobs, recurring tasks, event-driven workflows, and apps. It also includes alerts, status pages, and basic incident management to help teams catch failures fast.

    Monitors Overview is where you can access availability of all monitors project-wise.
    Monitor Detail page shows you latest availability, ping history with one click CSV download and public status page creation with one click.
    You can add integrations and get notified via selected channels when an incident happens. Also you can bundle some channels as groups to alert multiple entities together.

    Share your public status page url with your stakeholders, team or customers. When an incident is ack'ed or being resolved let them know you are notified and working on it.
    Samed Kahyaoglu’s note

    Drumbeats.io is not just a job monitoring / incident response tool. It provides public status pages and downloadable, well structured history and basic analytics. My favorite is their AI integration agent which allows me to do nothing except getting an apikey for installment.

  8. Retool icon
     Like

    Your business needs software. But because engineers are scarce, many departments (sales, marketing, support, HR, etc.) don’t build the software they need. When companies use Retool, they build much more software, which leads to a more efficient business.
