Monitor REST, GraphQL, and gRPC endpoints from distributed edge probes. Verify HTTP status codes, response times, SSL certificate expirations, and mTLS handshakes with instant WhatsApp & Slack escalation.
Eliminate transient ISP network blips. Concurrent checks across US-East, EU-Central, and AP-South require a quorum threshold before raising an alert.
Verify internal microservices with client certificates and custom enterprise Root CAs. RSA & EC private keys are strictly encrypted with zero client leakage.
Wake your on-call engineering team in under 500ms via native WhatsApp alerts, Slack Webhooks, Discord, and Microsoft Teams.
Automated synthetic checks execute continuously in 4 deterministic steps.
Configured headers, query params, authentication tokens, and payload bodies are dispatched from edge runners.
Uptara verifies expected status code (e.g. 200 OK), JSON body paths, and ensures latency stays below timeout thresholds.
If a check fails in one region, backup edge nodes verify whether the outage is global or local before alerting.
An incident is opened, recorded in your SLA ledger, published to your public status page, and sent to on-call channels.

}Everything you need to know about API uptime, SLA calculations, and monitoring with Uptara.
API uptime monitoring is the automated process of sending continuous synthetic requests (GET, POST, PUT, DELETE) to an HTTP endpoint from distributed edge locations to verify its availability, status code, latency, and response body integrity.
Calculate 99.9% vs 99.99% availability, track error budgets, and export SLA reports.
Interactive tool to calculate allowed downtime per day, month, and year for any SLA.
