# Avoiding Bogus Alerts Using AWS-Based Proxies & Outsourced BGP for Distributed Monitoring - Host: [blog.logicmonitor.com](https://links.thingelstad.xyz/hosts/blog.logicmonitor.com/) - Saved: March 5, 2014 (2014-03-06T03:20:00Z) - Record: https://links.thingelstad.xyz/links/93c20dc5cd6f/ - JSON: https://links.thingelstad.xyz/links/93c20dc5cd6f.json ## From the page (probably an excerpt, not Jamie's words) We also could have decided to start peering directly with additional ISPs with the idea being that more connections equals a greater likelihood for transit success, but a simpler solution that avoids us having to manage our own BGP peerings was to deploy a number of proxy servers in various EC2 regions. Proxies receive requests from Collectors and forward them (storing nothing on disk) to LogicMonitors data centers. ## Facts - Kind: [Page](https://links.thingelstad.xyz/kinds/page/) ## Same host - [4 Massive Mistakes Companies Make Handling Outages | The LogicMonitor Blog](https://links.thingelstad.xyz/links/b56e665866cf/) (blog.logicmonitor.com, December 21, 2014) - [Integrating Jira and LogicMonitor | The LogicMonitor Blog](https://links.thingelstad.xyz/links/6453f9948466/) (blog.logicmonitor.com, April 10, 2015) ## Saved the same week - [Why blog?](https://links.thingelstad.xyz/links/1456083b43e3/) (scripting.com, March 5, 2014) - [Lawrence Lessig Settles Fair Use Lawsuit Over Phoenix Music Snippets](https://links.thingelstad.xyz/links/801f5fabc8fe/) (eff.org, March 5, 2014) - [Stephen Wolfram's Introduction to the Wolfram Language](https://links.thingelstad.xyz/links/0761ab483e83/) (youtube.com, March 5, 2014) - [Password leak in WeMo devices makes home appliances susceptible to hijacks (updated)](https://links.thingelstad.xyz/links/82b3afb694aa/) (arstechnica.com, March 5, 2014) - [10 Things You Should Know About Running MongoDB at Scale](https://links.thingelstad.xyz/links/17b298c0df02/) (highscalability.com, March 5, 2014) ## Elsewhere - Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/http://blog.logicmonitor.com/2014/03/05/avoiding-bogus-alerts-using-aws-based-proxies-outsourced-bgp-for-distributed-monitoring/
