WebSocket monitoring
Real-time services deserve real-time monitoring.
Notifications, chat, live dashboards: LucidStack opens a WebSocket connection, sends a message and checks the reply, just like your application does.

WebSocket monitoring
Beyond the homepage
Persistent connections fail in their own ways; LucidStack catches them.
ws and wss
Encrypted or unencrypted connections, with TLS negotiation and certificate verification.
Message sent
Send a text message when the connection opens, like an application-level ping.
Expected reply
Check that the reply contains the expected text, for example "pong".
Connection time
The time to open the connection is measured and tracked.
Three regions
An outage seen from a single region doesn't trigger an alert.
Alerts and status pages
Show the status of your real-time service on your status page.
