The latest News and Information on Monitoring for Websites, Applications, APIs, Infrastructure, and other technologies.
Cron job is a scheduling tool that allows you to control tasks to be performed at preconfigured times. Through it you can configure automatic tasks, that is, you can define routines to be executed at a specific time.
There are nearly two billion websites live at this very moment. That’s almost two billion chances for data to be stolen and malware to be distributed. Don’t worry! Or maybe do worry, but just not too much. Protections have been developed to keep data and websites safe.
Monitoring has typically been the remit of small, specialised IT Operations teams but the tools they’ve been given are rarely fit for purpose in today’s demanding environments.

As you may already know, our Guidance Report not only inspects your AWS account using best practice recommendation checks, but it also finds avenues to improve performance, reliability, and savings so you can deploy resources with confidence. Today, I'm excited to announce that we've introduced some enhancements to make the Guidance Report even more helpful. So let's get straight to it.
We built Versions for customers who are adopting software development practices like Continuous Delivery. One important habit to cultivate when you're seeking to adopt Continuous Delivery is to deploy early and often. This is easier to do when you have a tool like Rollbar that allows you to see all production errors instantly and quickly prioritize and debug them as needed. With Versions, we're making it even easier for you to use Rollbar to monitor errors from code revisions you've just deployed.
Last week we released version 4.0.0 of the honeybadger Ruby gem. This release includes a long-awaited feature which makes it even easier to customize your error reports before they are sent to Honeybadger. We also did some much-needed refactoring, and made a few removals and deprecations for good measure. Don't worry, though—most of the API remains unchanged, so upgrading should be a relatively painless process for most users.
