Frequently Asked Questions

What is DigitalOcean Uptime Monitoring?

DigitalOcean Uptime Monitoring is a service that continuously checks the availability of your websites and applications from different locations around the world. It sends you instant alerts via email or Slack when a service goes down, helping you quickly respond to incidents and minimize downtime.

What kinds of alerts can I receive?

You can get alerts for downtime, latency spikes, and SSL certificate expirations. Alerts can be customized and delivered via popular channels like Slack and email.

How often does Uptime Monitoring check my endpoints?

The service performs checks at one-minute intervals from multiple global locations to ensure a high level of accuracy and timely detection of issues.

Can I view historical data?

Yes, the service provides a latency metric graph that allows you to analyze historical performance and discover patterns over a period of up to 90 days. This allows you to make better decisions as you scale your operations.

How does Uptime Monitoring work with my website?

Uptime Monitoring works by making regular HTTP or HTTPS requests to your website's URL from multiple regions. If a check fails to receive a successful response within a certain time frame, the service will perform a re-check from other locations. If those also fail, an alert is sent out to notify you of the outage.

Can I monitor more than just my home page?
Yes, you can monitor any specific URL, not just your home page. This allows you to monitor critical endpoints, such as your login page, an API endpoint for an App Platform service, or a specific function running in DigitalOcean Functions. This helps you proactively find and resolve issues with your application's key features.
