Detection types
Service availability detection
Periodically simulates user access from globally distributed nodes using protocols such as HTTP, TCP, and ICMP. This proactively detects the availability and performance of target services, such as domain names, IP addresses, and interfaces. The system supports assertion rules for response status codes, latency, and certificate validity. This allows for the real-time detection of service interruptions, timeouts, and protocol-level faults, such as an HTTP 500 error. When a preset threshold is triggered, an alert is automatically sent. Data from detection nodes, combined with a visualization dashboard, helps locate faulty nodes and optimize network resource configurations.
Business flow detection
Simulates end-to-end business operations, such as placing an order, making a payment, and updating inventory, to verify the integrity and consistency of core business flows. This process checks not only service availability, such as HTTP/TCP responses, but also validates the business logic layer. This validation includes checking API call chain integrity and transactional data consistency. If a flow is delayed, a step fails, or an abnormality occurs, an alert is triggered. The alert is associated with technical monitoring data to help identify the root cause. This ensures that critical business scenarios run without interruption.
Page performance detection
Simulates real browser behavior, such as JavaScript execution, resource loading, and interactive responses, to proactively monitor the web page access experience. The monitoring covers page load speed, interaction smoothness, and end-to-end performance. End-to-end scenario simulations, such as logging on, searching, and submitting a form, are used to detect problems. These problems include frontend resource stuttering and abnormal third-party scripts. A visualization dashboard renders performance trends and bottlenecks. This helps optimize the frontend architecture and CDN policies to improve user satisfaction.
