  • showcert

    Simple OpenSSL for humans: all you need for X.509 TLS certificates (and nothing more).

  • showcert is simple CLI tool which does tiny fraction of what OpenSSL can do, but this fraction is 9/10 of what typical sysadmin/programmer needs from OpenSSL. If openssl is swiss army knife (you can repair spaceship with it), showcert is simple knife with beer bottle opener. It's much easier to use, syntax is intuitive and hard to forget (how to check reddit SSL cert with openssl? measure time to find sequence of commands for this and run it).

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.
