Company profile
researched Aug 2026Detect.sh operates a community and newsletter centered on problem detection and troubleshooting for modern software applications. Its recurring newsletter, published as numbered issues (from an inaugural April 2024 edition through issue #18 in September 2025), aggregates analyses of notable production incidents at large technology and financial companies, debugging and profiling techniques, open-source tooling releases, and community events.
Editorial coverage spans post-incident analysis (for example incidents attributed to OpenAI, Cloudflare, GitHub, Google Cloud, PagerDuty, Zoom, Spotify, Anthropic, Reddit, Slack, Canva, Docker, Bank of America, PlayStation, Mailchimp, Capital One and CrowdStrike), site reliability engineering practice (SLOs, incident severity classification, operational review meetings, on-call), and technical instruction on Kubernetes evictions and failures, eBPF, OpenTelemetry, Common Reliability Enumerations (CREs), Kafka monitoring and data loss, remote memory profiling, zero-downtime migrations, and debugging in Go and Rust. The site also publishes guides and tips alongside the newsletter, including material on deterministic versus probabilistic problem detection and reducing production error backlogs, and organizes community activity such as virtual meetups and live events.
