Intro to proxymock, a free traffic-based service mocking tool within VS Code.

Jan 22, 2025 By Speedscale In Speedscale
Speedscale's proxymock is a free VS Code plugin that passively listens to transactions, so developers can replay past responses or inbound transactions like a time machine. Past transactions can serve as non-rate-limited service mocks, editable databases, or even regression/load/chaos tests. Building service mocks to serve as service virtualization/mocks can be time consuming and manual. Maintaining complex, shared environments for engineering incurs expensive cloud costs and aren't often accurate.

What Is API Monitoring?

Jan 20, 2025 By Uptime.com In uptime
Application programming interfaces (APIs) are the James Bonds of software, silently keeping everything running smoothly while sipping martinis (shaken, not stirred). They’re the vital communication channels that enable different software systems to interact seamlessly, making sure your online shopping carts don’t mysteriously empty and your social media feeds keep you endlessly entertained with cat videos.

Stay ahead of service disruptions with Watchdog Cloud & API Outage Detection

Jan 17, 2025 By Hugo Pucéat In Datadog
Even with the best monitoring in place, outages are unavoidable. Complex, modern IT environments rely on multiple third-party services, including critical cloud and API providers, and when any one of those goes down, it can trigger a domino effect of increased error rates and latency spikes across your system. And, because you don’t have as much visibility into external services, it can be difficult to identify that the problem is due to an outside outage or disrupted service.

What does OOMKilled mean and how do I prevent it?

Jan 1, 2025 By Shaun Duncan In Speedscale
When creating production-level applications, enterprises want to ensure the high availability of services. This often results in a lengthy development process that requires extensive testing for the applications or a new release. This involves testing the behavior of the application under load, measuring the performance metrics, and accounting for the resource consumption. All this is done to ensure that the application does not behave unexpectedly when being used by clients.
