OneUptime

OneUptime is an open-source observability platform. It brings uptime monitoring, status pages, incident management, on-call scheduling, logs, metrics and traces into one product. OneUptime can be used as a cloud service or self-hosted, and its source code is public.

Monitors check websites, APIs, SSL certificates, DNS and other targets on a schedule from probe locations. When a check fails, OneUptime can open an incident, alert the people on call and update a public status page so customers know what is happening.

What OneUptime handles

• Website, API, SSL certificate and DNS monitoring
• Public and private status pages
• Incidents with timelines and notes
• On-call schedules and escalation
• Logs, metrics and traces from applications

Why monitoring matters for a business site

Without monitoring, a business often learns its site is down from a customer, or from a drop in leads days later. Uptime checks catch outages within minutes. Certificate monitoring warns before an SSL certificate expires and browsers show a security warning. Checks on contact forms and checkout pages catch failures that a simple home page check would miss.

Status pages

A status page gives customers and staff one place to see whether a service is working, what is being done and when it was resolved. It reduces support calls during an incident and builds a record of reliability over time.

OneUptime fits businesses with websites, stores and applications where downtime costs leads or sales. Monitoring is most useful when someone is responsible for acting on the alerts it sends, and when alerts go to a channel that person actually watches.
