Integrate Downtime Alert with Amazon S3

I-1. Downtime Alert is a web application that allows you to receive notifications when your favorite websites are down. It sends email and SMS alerts when any of your selected sites go down. You can also sign up to receive alerts when your site goes down. The service uses Pingdom and will ping the URL every hour until it receives a response from the server. This will let you know if your site is down or not.

I-2. Amazon S3 is a service provided by Amazon Web Services (AWS), an online service that provides access to data storage through web services interfaces, and this is one of the most popular options for storing files online. It is simple and reliable – three things that are essential for any backup spution. As well as files, you can store everything from databases to mailboxes, media content and website components in S3.

II-1. Integration of Downtime Alert and Amazon S3

II-1-1. The first thing to do after signing up with Downtime Alert is to select the sites you want to monitor. When you enter the URL, Downtime Alert will perform a simple check to see if there’s an existing record about the site in its database. If there is, it will validate the site; if not, it will create a new record.

II-1-2. The next step is to define what type of notification you want to receive, whether it be email, SMS or both. Once that is done, you can also set up an alarm. If a site you chose goes down, Downtime Alert will send you an alert via email and/or SMS.

II-2. Benefits of Integration of Downtime Alert and Amazon S3

II-2-1. When your website goes down, your business suffers huge losses because users can’t access the site. A downtime of only a few minutes can cause significant loss of revenue. Suppose you have a website that charges $10 per month for its services. A few minutes of downtime can result in more than $10 worth of lost revenue per minute. So, it would be wise not to take chances with your website.

II-2-2. With Downtime Alert, you can rest assured that your website will never be down for too long. Even if your website crashes, you will be instantly informed about it through a text message or email. You can then take corrective action immediately.

II-2-3. Another benefit of using Amazon S3 is that it offers 99.999999999% durability meaning that there’s less chance of data loss even if the system fails or crashes. Also, there’s no limit on how much data you can store in an Amazon S3 bucket – just make sure you have enough bandwidth to handle all that data!
