Summary

A new integration between Scout, a hosted server monitoring system, and PagerDuty, an incident response platform, has been announced, enabling users to receive notifications for server, database, and application issues through phone, SMS, and email. Scout, which monitors server metrics and various services such as MySQL and MongoDB, allows for easy visualization of metrics across servers. The integration process is straightforward, requiring users to connect their Scout and PagerDuty accounts via an API-based integration, after which Scout can trigger incidents in PagerDuty. Early customer feedback has been positive, highlighting the ease of setup and the convenience of auto-resolving alerts.
