External uptime checks every 60 seconds with incident tracking, down/recovery alerts, and a public status page.
Overview
Your own infrastructure cannot reliably report its own death — uptime monitoring has to live outside it. CheckVibe probes your site every 60 seconds from external infrastructure, classifies failures by cause (DNS, TLS, connection refused, timeout, 5xx), tracks incidents with precise durations, and publishes the record to a public status page your customers can check during an outage.
What this scanner does
Sends a lightweight HEAD request (with automatic GET fallback) every 60 seconds with a 10-second timeout. Opens an incident only after consecutive failures to filter network blips, closes it on the first successful probe, and records the duration and error class. Treats 4xx responses (WAF challenges, rate limits) as up — only 5xx and transport failures count as down. Sends email alerts on both downtime and recovery, and renders a public status page with live state, 90-day daily history, and uptime percentages.
Why it matters
The gap between an outage starting and you finding out is pure damage: lost signups, failed payments, and customers discovering the problem before you do. A 60-second probe bounds the DETECTION half of that gap to about a minute; the email follows within minutes, once enough consecutive probes have failed that we are sure it is not a blip. The public status page absorbs support load during incidents and doubles as reliability evidence — a 90-day green bar answers the procurement question before it gets asked.
