I am trying to find out if I can get notified when a site is down, or when a service running under WAS is no longer running.
I don't want to code a monitoring tool, I am sure there must be something out there...
I'm using this
http://tools.pingdom.com/
Beside the cool online tools you have a subscription for monitoring your site.
I found a couple more, haven't used them. These seem totally free while pingdom tools is only free for one site.

I also had this need, so I created an open source app called Pinger. You can do unlimited URLs with intervals of your choosing. The docs has instructions for getting running on Heroku quickly:
https://github.com/austinthecoder/pinger
I personally use Content Site Monitor. It has a really simple and cool web interface that allows you to view your site’s up-time statistics on a desktop or mobile screen. It’s easy to configure your monitoring parameters as well.
It doesn't just ping your server to make sure that it's alive. It allows you to specify certain content/keywords that you want to monitor. It will send you alert email if the content/keywords are missing from your site or if your site goes down.
Best of all, it’s free to monitor up to 3 sites!

I received a notification from Firebase to reverify my custom domain. Going into the firebase hosting dashboard, I only have one button to press on
Once I press it, I get the error:
We couldn't verify your domain . Please check your settings and try again.
What settings is it referring to?
On the DNS provider side nothing changed. Still have the records as configured when I first set up firebase hosting.
Received official word from Firebase:
We are aware of the deep impact it might be having for your project,
but I assure you we are working on it as our top priority. Our
engineering team is aware of this problem and even though they are
already working on it, the issue is still affecting several projects.
I apologize for the inconvenience and will keep you updated as soon as
more information is available.
[UPDATE]
https://status.firebase.google.com/incident/Hosting/21001
There is now an open ticket
Seems that they have fixed issue.
I just pressed "Verify" button again now and status says "Connected".

I would like to publish my asp.net core to my own domain that is hosted on a shared hosting.
However, after publishing I would like to spend a few hours live testing it (yeah, I have yet to learn auto testing using selenium).
While doing so, I want to prevent visitors from knowing that the site is published so that they won't use it; some strangers know that I will be publishing some time soon and they may have set up auto monitoring.
How can that be achieved?
Best recommendation would be to use a different subdomain if your applications isn't affected by the domain it is accessed on, this will allow the older version to still be used by others. But if you don't mind if others are completely unable to access the system while you are testing, just whitelist only your IP on the domain.
You can setup a gateway for you website.
You can set IP whitelist in the server hosting provider, or you can use a reverse proxy like Nginx to set IP whitelist or HTTP auth before the requests arrive your website.
If the domain doesn't matters, you can use subdomain as Jacob suggests

I want to create a Shiny app that could share within my company. Though my company laptop don't allow the Shinyapps.io, I used my personal laptop to successfully run a shiny test.
My question is, is there any potential security issue if I use my personal laptop to run the company data using shiny, and share the output to my coworkers.
If the security is violated by doing so, what are other options to make it secure only to the company?
Anything hosted on shiny server will be available to anyone who is able to connect to your laptop. If you want to work around this, you can use NGINX and require people to authenticate on another page before they can gain access to shiny, which you host locally and connect through a websocket. However, you're likely to mess up on some security thing (because it's incredibly easy to get security wrong), and people will gain access to either the raw data (which is extremely terrifying) or whatever visualizations you create in shiny (which is still terrifying). If you just use runApp("my-app"), and then screenshot visualizations from your computer to send around, you're fine, but if the data goes anywhere on the internet, I wouldn't consider it safe.
To piggyback off of #ConCave on the issues of data privacy - the main issue of sharing your Shiny apps over shinyapps.io is that the data will need to be hosted on those external servers. If your company happens to have an IT support system that can recreate/host the entire Shiny server on their own servers, you could port your apps onto their server.

I am just trying to learn MongoDB. I followed this walktrough to install it:
http://docs.mongodb.org/manual/tutorial/install-mongodb-on-windows/
Here is my screenshot for mongod.exe:
And here isthe screenshot of mongo.exe:
It seems everything is fine to me. Am I wrong?
During my googlings I decided that MongoVue is a good management application for MongoDB by a cool user interface. So I downloaded and installed it. Here is the screen I see when I opened it:
How do I have to fill these fields to create a connection from MongoVue to MongoDB? Do I have to do something else before that?
Assuming you haven't configured authentication within MongoDB, just give the connection a name and fill in the IP address of the server (127.0.0.1 if it's local):
Click Test to test out the settings and then Save to create the connection. Then click Connect on the parent dialog to actually connect to the server.
Caution
MongoVUE doesn't work with 3.x MongoDB servers and hasn't been updated in almost two years. See here for alternatives.

What do you use to monitor the uptime / performance of your websites, specifically those based on a PHP/MySQL platform like Wordpress?
I'm looking for something that alerts me if the site is down, or performing too slowly, and has some useful (not volumeous!) charts showing me any potential problems, and what to do about them.
Thanks!
We along with the usual Nagios, we use Pingdom. It comes with lots of default checks.
For example it also reports how fast your website is or since they employ tests from different locations you get a nice graph how accessible your website was. To put some sense into it, add a reference check (e.g. google) and see how you perform.
Aside from HTTP etc. you can also check other services (mail, database, etc.). If they are not reachable from the outside, you can always create a script that outputs a standard "OK" and have Pingdom check on that, and report back if the output changed.
I should add that Pingdom is not a free service. But we've been using them for 10 months now and they haven't troubled us. :)
