As announced in an earlier post, we’ve recently introduced monitoring servers in Brazil and Sweden. The Brazil server is located in Rio De Janeiro and the Swedish one is at Stockholm.

These additions further augment our global monitoring network and takes the total location count to 17. The Brazil server is our first in South America. The Sweden server is our fourth location in Europe to go with UK, Netherlands and Germany. We now offer monitoring from every continent except for Antartica!!

We will be adding more locations to our network based on user demand, so stay tuned to this space for more updates.

We recently had an update here at Site24x7. Here is a brief overview of the features/enhancements that have gone into this update.

1. Option to integrate website uptime and performance data into intranet portals/applications:

We have provided access to secure public views for all the monitors in your account. These views display the uptime and performance data of the websites you are monitoring, and these views can be easily integrated into any third-party application or corporate/intranet portals. Users can thus get a perspective of the performance of their websites from outside the datacenter, and they can get it right within any application or corporate/intranet portal.

Below is a sample Dashboard View integrated into ManageEngine Applications Manager product.

We have just rolled out an iPhone client that can be used to access Site24x7 website monitoring service. The interface lets you connect to Site24x7 and view the current status of the monitors in your account.

This is useful for you to get a quick overview of the status of your web sites while you are on the move. You can view the current uptime and performance statistics for each of your web sites. You can also view SLA reports and keep track of SLA compliance. There is a separate view for outage statistics for the last 24 hours. The design comes with a tabbed interface which lets you navigate easily between these views - uptime status, SLA reports and Outages.

From the "Home" tab, you can drill down and view the global status of the website for the last 24 hours as well as view info about response time, the primary location from where the website is being monitored, next polling time, etc. From the SLA tab, you can view a summary of the various service level agreements in place. For each SLA, you can drill down and view historical data such as the SLA Goal and SLA Achieved %.

The new client will be a useful tool for webmasters or website owners to check the uptime status & SLA compliance of websites. As always, we will be improving upon this tool in the future as we go along.

Looking forward to your feedback on the new iPhone client!
