Overview
NSYS Mirador is our internal status monitoring tool, developed to ensure that both our public-facing and internal hosted services remain reliable, performant, and proactively supervised.
While open-source, Mirador is primarily deployed by us as part of our infrastructure stack, acting as a critical safety net for service health and availability.
Key Features
-
Service Health Monitoring
Tracks availability and responsiveness of our deployed services, across both public and internal endpoints.
-
Proactive Alerts
Uses Discord webhooks for real-time reporting, ensuring the right people are notified immediately when an issue arises.
-
Cloud-Native Design
Built with .NET and Azure Functions, optimized for scalability, resilience, and low maintenance overhead.
-
Data Persistence
Employs Cosmos DB for reliable state tracking and historical logging of service checks.
-
Open-Source Transparency
Although primarily for our deployments, Mirador is publicly visible, allowing others to inspect, adapt, or repurpose its monitoring logic.
Impact & Adoption
Mirador, while not destined as a public product, is a foundational piece of our operational tooling. By continuously monitoring our infrastructure, it allows us to:
- Detect outages or anomalies within minutes*.
- Maintain service uptime in the 99.5–99.9% range.
- Confidently scale our hosted services knowing that monitoring is always active in the background.
This proactive approach means our clients and users experience fewer disruptions, while we gain confidence in the robustness of our deployments.
Open Source & Community
The project is publicly accessible and open-source, reflecting our philosophy of transparent tooling. Others may deploy or adapt Mirador for their own monitoring needs, although its primary focus remains on supporting our own hosted services.
About NSYS
We don’t just build large-scale applications like SocialGuard or WOWS Karma. We also craft the ancillary tools that keep those applications reliable.
Mirador is a perfect example: a behind-the-scenes platform that quietly ensures our hosted services stay healthy, resilient, and performant. By investing in these support tools, we reinforce our commitment to operational excellence and long-term service reliability for everything we deliver.
