Pulsar is Magento-aware monitoring for the failures that don't cause downtime โ checkout that returns 200 but fails, skimmers, indexer drift. External uptime + real-browser checkout testing + 20 Magento health collectors. It catches what New Relic and Uptime Robot call green.
Hey Product Hunt ๐ I'm Serhiy, founder of Byte8.
After ~13 years building and running Magento stores, the same painful pattern kept repeating: the server is up, every page returns a clean HTTP 200, the uptime monitor is green โ and the store is quietly broken. Checkout fails at the last step. A skimmer gets injected into a CMS block. An indexer drifts and category pages go empty. You find out from customers, or from reconciliation, not from your monitoring.
That's the gap Pulsar fills. It's Magento-aware monitoring for the business outcome, not just the response code: โข External synthetic uptime from global probes โข Real-Chromium checkout-flow testing (it drives an actual cart โ checkout โ payment, on Luma & Hyvรค) โข An optional Magento extension with 20 health collectors โ indexer, cron, queue, OpenSearch, Redis, stuck orders, content-integrity/skimmer detection, and more โ surfacing internal state nothing external can see
APM (New Relic, Datadog) answers "is it fast?"; uptime tools answer "does it respond?" Pulsar answers "can customers actually buy?"
It's a flat monthly subscription (no per-host metering), with a free trial. Would genuinely love feedback from anyone running Magento/Adobe Commerce โ what silent failure has bitten you hardest? Happy to answer anything here today.
