Monitor Availability Report

The Monitor Availability report provides uptime statistics for all your monitors. Track availability percentages, identify reliability issues, and ensure SLA compliance.

Report Sections

Overall Availability

Top-level metrics showing:

  • Overall Uptime - Aggregate availability percentage
  • Total Checks - Number of monitoring checks performed
  • Successful Checks - Checks that passed
  • Failed Checks - Checks that failed

Monitor Details

Detailed table for each monitor showing:

  • Monitor Name - Name and type of monitor
  • Availability % - Uptime percentage for the period
  • Success Count - Number of successful checks
  • Failure Count - Number of failed checks
  • Avg Response Time - Average response time when successful

Sort by availability to quickly find:

  • Least reliable monitors
  • Perfect uptime monitors
  • Performance outliers

Line chart showing overall availability percentage by day. This helps:

  • Identify downtime patterns
  • Track improvement over time
  • Spot specific problem days

Response Time Analysis

For each monitor, view:

  • Average response times
  • Response time trends
  • Performance consistency

Using the Report

Understanding Availability

Availability percentage calculation:

Availability % = (Successful Checks / Total Checks) × 100

Common targets:

  • 99.9% = ~43 minutes downtime/month
  • 99.5% = ~3.6 hours downtime/month
  • 99% = ~7.2 hours downtime/month

Identifying Issues

Look for:

  • Low availability monitors - Need immediate attention
  • Degrading trends - Early warning signs
  • Slow response times - Performance issues
  • Inconsistent monitors - Intermittent problems

Best Practices

SLA Management

Use availability data to:

  • Verify SLA compliance
  • Report to stakeholders
  • Plan improvements
  • Set realistic targets

Proactive Monitoring

Regular review helps:

  • Catch issues before they escalate
  • Identify infrastructure weaknesses
  • Plan maintenance windows
  • Optimize monitoring coverage

Performance Tracking

Monitor response times to:

  • Detect performance degradation
  • Plan capacity upgrades
  • Optimize application performance
  • Set performance baselines

Interpreting Results

Healthy Indicators

  • Availability above target SLA
  • Consistent daily availability
  • Stable response times
  • Low failure counts

Warning Signs

  • Availability below SLA targets
  • Declining availability trends
  • Increasing response times
  • High failure rates

Common Issues

Intermittent Failures

  • Network connectivity issues
  • Resource constraints
  • Application bugs
  • External dependencies

Consistent Failures

  • Configuration problems
  • Infrastructure issues
  • Application errors
  • Monitoring misconfiguration

Taking Action

Immediate Response

  1. Investigate monitors below SLA
  2. Check recent changes or deployments
  3. Review failure patterns
  4. Engage appropriate teams

Long-term Planning

  • Improve infrastructure reliability
  • Add redundancy where needed
  • Optimize application performance
  • Enhance monitoring coverage
