Decentralized and in the Know: Mobytronics and Humio

The world of modern application development has brought many innovations, but none so clearly seen as the concept of decentralization. Whether that be a decentralized stack using microservices, a decentralized cryptocurrency using the blockchain, or a decentralized company that works 100% remotely, the idea of having everything in one place can be considered out of date.

Mobytronics is a good example. There’s no Mobytronics HQ, no smaller offices. Based in The Netherlands, the team of developers are fully remote, building diverse sets of applications like MobyTrader that allows you to trade using crypto currencies. They’re also the team behind buyBTCnow.com (a micro-crypto exchanger service where users can purchase Bitcoins fast, simple and secure for up to a maximum of EUR 250 per month) and Cryexmarkets.com, a live cryptocurrency data feed provider with an easily integratable API.

With team members located all over the world, Mobytronics’ ideal customer are folks within the cryptocurrency space who believe in the mobile exchange. It enables their applications to exist and it helps process payment for services rendered. Mobytronics is truly working to disrupt the common working model.

Affordable real-time troubleshooting and security defence
With a stack that includes Clojure, C#, and JavaScript, the team needs to have the flexibility to see what’s going on in an application in real time. Using their previous set up of PaperTrail and Monique didn’t give this cutting edge team the ability to customize accordingly.

“Humio had some pretty good features that helped our day to day tasks, like logging, monitoring, alerting, and reporting,” says Andrei Balanescu, Product Owner at MobyTrader. “Humio offers a good quality for a great price and provides us great insights regarding the state of our services so we can fix issues before they can occur,“ he adds while examining how this 100% remote team is able to plan and react based on the fast paced information Humio can deliver.

Security is also key when operating in the cryptocurrency space. Humio maintains information on any data related issues and alerts the right parties to any potentially harmful errors that may be occurring. Andrei proclaims, “We use it daily for logging and our services are dependent on Humio’s risk service.”

With stability, security, and alerting, Humio helps bring the disruptive, worldwide team at Mobytronics together under one, flexible, and easy-to-use dashboard.
