What software is used to power status.snapcraft.io?

status.snapcraft.io is a Site24x7 status page.

I expected something more FOSS from snapcraft.io

We needed a hosted solution, since we didn’t want any trouble with our own systems to cause the status page to go down as well, or cause the monitoring service to show things as up when to the rest of the Internet they are down. Site24x7 also has the benefit of reliably monitoring everything from multiple ISPs around the world, so localised outages are detected.

If you know of any freer alternatives, I’m definitely open to suggestions.
