Description

As this bot moves into production and starts getting integrated in various flows where people start depending on it, I think it is time to think about how we can monitory uptime and response-time of the bot.

Here are some suggestions which I have experience with:

Name Price License Remarks
Pingdom $14.95/mo ❌Proprietary Easy to set up, but expensive 😕
Pagerduty $9/mo ❌Proprietary Very advanced. Much enterpizy 😐
fzaninotto/uptime Free ✅MIT Unfortunately this project is not maintained any more 😢
DIY Free ✅MIT Make something our self similar to what I have made for monitoring Jenkins Slaves

We could send a shout out to Pingdom and Pagerduty to hear if they would like to sponsor the Node.js Foundation – it might be worth a shot.
