Real-time infrastructure monitoring for DevOps
Welcome to StatusPulse
StatusPulse delivers sub-30-second uptime monitoring, synthetic transaction testing, and automated incident routing for modern engineering teams. This guide walks you through provisioning your workspace, deploying your first HTTP monitor, and connecting a Slack webhook for alert delivery.
Our infrastructure checks endpoints every 30 seconds from 12 global probe locations (US-East, EU-West, APAC-Tokyo, etc.). You’ll have full visibility into response codes, TLS certificate expiry, and DNS resolution times within minutes of setup.
Setup Workflow
1. Provision Your Workspace
Register with your corporate SSO or GitHub Enterprise account. During onboarding, assign your primary workspace name (e.g., `acme-engineering`) and set your default timezone to UTC. Invite up to five team members using the `@acme.com` domain restriction to enforce SSO compliance.
2. Deploy Your First Monitor
Navigate to Monitors > Create New. Select HTTP(S) as the protocol and input your production endpoint, such as `https://api.acme.io/v2/health`. Configure a 45-second timeout, enable TLS 1.3 validation, and set the check interval to 30 seconds. StatusPulse will immediately begin polling from all active probe regions.
3. Configure Alert Routing
Go to Integrations > Slack and paste your incoming webhook URL (`https://hooks.slack.com/services/T02.../B04...`). Map the `#oncall-engineering` channel to Critical and Warning severity levels. Enable the 3-strike confirmation rule to prevent false-positive paging during brief network blips.
What’s Next
Once your baseline monitoring is active, expand your observability stack with advanced synthetic checks and automated runbook execution.
