Our development timeline through version 0.4.2 is solid. We’re fullfilling our #1 feature request (can you guess what is is?) and refactoring the core of how component and containers work together.
We have supported multi-tenancy systems since the beginning, but components had a 1-to-1 relationship with containers. Soon you will have the ability to place a single component into multiple containers. This is a critical step that we must accomplish before continuing to increase functionality.

Beyond 0.4.2, we could use your help to decide on the priority of our development efforts. Send us your feedback. What features do you need? Which metrics providers do you want to see integrated? Have any ideas for the status page ux design? We’re super friendly. Your feedback would be sincerely appreciated. Drop us a line at hello@status.io

When we launched in August there were browser compatibility issues, a limited feature set and no friendly wizard to help get your status page set up. But that has all changed! As of today, our platform has never been more stable. Instead of debugging errors, we are enhancing the existing features and adding new ones.

With a little CSS and static image, we rolled our own mapping solution. It was half-baked and only meant to be a temporary solution.

The legacy maps are now long gone and we replaced them with the maginificant jVectorMap! Browser compatibility was a primary concern and these maps support everything all the way back to IE 6.0.

The shiny new maps:

Location information appears on hover. We will be adding more meaningful data here in the future.

The legacy CSS maps:

Already use Pingdom for network monitoring? You’re in luck! Simply link your Pingdom alerts to your Status.io components for automatic status updates.

How it works

Pingdom sends an email alert when one of your monitoring checks fails. Our backend parses this message and then toggles the component’s status based on the detected values.

• ‘DOWN’ sets a component to ‘Full outage’
• ‘UP’ sets a component to ‘Operational’

Configure your components for Pingdom automation

1. Login to the Status.io control panel and navigate to integrations. Copy the email hook address from the component you’re linking right now.

 

2. Next login to your Pingdom account and add a new contact using the email address you copied in the previous step.

 

3. Edit the individual monitoring check at Pingdom and enable alerts to be sent to the new contact you just created.

Repeat these steps for each component that you want linked to a Pingdom check.

That’s it! Now your status page will stay updated automatically based on Pingdom events.

Status.io is now online and available to the world.

We are on a mission to enhance transparency by providing a platform for managing your system status page. The days of maintaining a homebrewed status page on a one-off box are over. Our tools allow you to efficiently manage your status page using a simple web interface, it’s even mobile friendly.

Status pages are mission critical. Our systems are highly-available, spanning across multiple-regions and multiple-providers. Your status page will be online when your service is not. View our service’s performance and uptime history at status.status.io.
