Enhance Web hosting

Not an ad, I promise! I've never heard of these guys - was about to spin up a vm and give her a quick bash.

Anyone tried it? Thoughts? Enhance.com - obviously it's in beta so I wouldn't use in production environment, but I do like a play around

Self-hosted distributed uptime/website monitoring with coordinated notifications

sgheghele — Mon, 12 Apr 2021 07:45:14 +0000

I'm trying to make good use of some NAT VPS I have. I would like to deploy an uptime monitor system that handles the various locations in an intelligent way, like Hetrixtools does.

In a gist: criteria like notify me if 3 locations see the target as offline.

I am aware of smokeping, and to be fair it handles the primary/secondary nodes pretty well but, to my knowledge, you get an e-mail every time a location sees the target as down.

How to Self-Host Plausible Analytics Guide

cyberhost — Fri, 08 Jan 2021 17:25:39 +0000

After much anticipation plausible.io released the option to self host their privacy-friendly analytics solution, a couple of months back. Plausible Cloud options

I have written up a cheeky guide https://cyberhost.uk/selfhost-plausible-analytics/ on how to set this up.

Could be another option to replace Google Analytics with @AnthonySmith

Please let me know if you have any issues with the setup or want to suggest a change to the article.

Cheers,

I am curious:
Which services/apps/solutions do you host yourself, instead of using external service providers?

I guess most of us know this list:

Which of the solutions on the list can you recommend or do you have something to add that the list is not carrying?

Looking forward to your inspirational posts and self-hosted solutions!
