Synthetic Monitoring

Detect user-facing failures before customers do

KloudMate runs scheduled checks on your APIs, endpoints, certificates, and DNS from multiple regions, so a broken route or an expiring cert shows up here first, not in a customer ticket.

Endpoint failures shouldn't surface first as a user report.

Synthetic Monitoring gives you a proactive signal on uptime and performance so responders can catch failing routes, certificates, and services before those problems become a customer escalation.

What teams can do with Synthetic Monitoring

Cover your most important endpoints and service checks with enough monitoring detail to move from failed status to investigation quickly.

Monitor many check types

Cover HTTP, SSL, DNS, TCP, UDP, gRPC, WebSocket, ICMP, and Push use cases from one monitoring module.

Run from multiple regions

Execute checks from different locations so teams can distinguish local noise from broader user-facing availability issues.

Track uptime and performance together

Review success rate, response time, recent incidents, and recent checks without losing the operational trail behind a failure.

Mute planned downtime, not real failures

Use notification channels and maintenance windows so planned downtime doesn't create unnecessary alert churn.

Monitor critical endpoints continuously

Synthetic checks are most useful when they feed directly into response workflows instead of sitting in a separate uptime dashboard.

01

Create the monitor

Define the endpoint or service check type, cadence, locations, and success expectations that matter for the workload.

02

Watch status and recent check history

Use the monitor overview to compare status, success rate, and regional health before opening the detailed check history.

03

Inspect the failed check or incident

Open recent incidents and recent checks to understand how widespread the failure is and what the first visible symptom was.

04

Route the issue with context

Send the failure into alerting or incident workflows with the failing target, locations, and latest evidence already attached.

Track uptime, latency, and failures across locations

Synthetic monitoring is not just a yes/no uptime signal. The details page helps responders understand where the check failed, how often, and what recent history suggests about the shape of the outage.

  • Compare status, success rate, target, frequency, and location coverage from the monitor list
  • Open recent incidents and recent checks from the monitor detail view
  • Use maintenance windows to suppress expected downtime during planned work

Connect synthetic failures to incidents and telemetry

A failed check should lead directly into the response workflow. KloudMate keeps the failing target, regions, and latest observations close enough to route into an incident with less manual translation.

  • Promote the failed check into the alerting and incident flow with context intact
  • Use the failing monitor as the top-level symptom, then investigate the backing service or endpoint
  • Preserve location-level history so responders can tell global outages from partial reachability issues

Use KloudMate Assistant to investigate failed checks faster

Assistant can summarize which monitor failed, which locations saw it first, and which service or dependency traces should be opened next so responders move faster from uptime symptom to root-cause evidence.

  • Summarize Explain the failing monitor, target, and location pattern
  • Correlate Connect the synthetic failure to related alerts, incidents, traces, or logs
  • Guide Point engineers toward the next service or endpoint view worth checking
