Monitoring & reporting of client website sites, databases, apps, headless applications and API's is essential for us and the reason why so many clients trust us to maintain their technical infrastructure.

Having begun moving some our clients into the Amazon ecosystem (EC2/RDS/Lightsail), we finally had some time to get to grips with Netdata Reporting and started creating a custom dashboard to display all of our managed services.

Behind the scenes, we've also connected the netdata alerting service to transactional mail services and twilio SMS services to ensure that we always know what's going on and are notified if and when something happens.

We've also just ordered a 40" TV to display this dashboard in the office - live stats at our finger tips! If you're on the Island, come into our offices in the next few weeks, have a coffee and see it live!

eCommerce is much more than just putting your products into a CMS. It's now more than that

eCommerce means so much more. Whether you’re talking about smart wearables, Google glass, augmented reality or mobile shopping, it not just about your website. You should now treat your eCommerce as pure data with a series of interconnected APIs.
