An application monitoring and incident management platform for tracking service availability, response times, and operational issues.
PulseOps aims to provide a straightforward way to monitor web services, investigate incidents, and understand application reliability over time.
- HTTP and HTTPS endpoint monitoring
- Configurable monitoring intervals
- Response time and availability tracking
- Automatic incident detection
- Incident timelines and history
- Alert rules and notification channels
- Public status pages
- Availability statistics
- Real-time dashboard updates
- Monitoring history and reports
| Layer | Technology |
|---|---|
| Backend | Python, FastAPI |
| Frontend | React, TypeScript |
| Database | PostgreSQL |
| Cache | Redis |
| Background Jobs | Celery |
| Infrastructure | Docker, Docker Compose |
| CI/CD | GitHub Actions |
| Testing | pytest, Playwright |
PulseOps will separate API operations, monitoring execution, and notification delivery.
Monitoring workers will perform scheduled checks and report results to a central backend. The API will expose monitoring configuration, historical measurements, and incident data.
Key design considerations:
- Asynchronous I/O
- Reliable background jobs
- Monitoring concurrency limits
- Incident state management
- Prevention of duplicate notifications
- Observability and structured logging
- Secure handling of monitored URLs and SSRF risks
- Define monitoring and incident models
- Set up FastAPI and React
- Configure Docker, Makefile, and CI
- Implement endpoint monitoring
- Build scheduling and worker execution
- Store historical monitoring results
- Implement incident detection
- Add notifications and alert rules
- Build monitoring dashboards
- Implement public status pages
- Complete reliability and security testing
Planning
The monitoring architecture and initial feature set are being defined. No application functionality has been implemented yet.
License to be determined.
