Construction of private environment website monitoring system - Uptime-kuma
Quickly build website monitoring tools and alarm systems
Why you need website monitoring tools
In a general environment where a website is deployed, the most important thing is to know whether the services provided by the website are down or whether the certificate has expired.
In the past, these things were monitored by writing scripts or programs, which was extremely troublesome for users without technical background. Especially after the monitoring is written, it also needs to be notified when something goes wrong, which undoubtedly makes reasonable monitoring more troublesome.
Adhering to the idea that for complicated things, you should first find ready-made tools online instead of relying on yourself. So there is today’s protagonist Uptime-kuma
