Our API exposes site monitoring tools in 89 cities across 47 different countries on 6 continents.
Through our global network we expose five types of monitoring tools:
**HTTP** - We make an HTTP request against the specified URL, returning the response code, size, and basic timing information for the request. Easily confirm site accessibility from global locations.
dig - Leveraging this foundational DNS tool we return global results on the requested domain. Confirm and monitor your global hosting, and anycast DNS solutions.
trace - Returns the full traceroute from any of our locations to your server, providing useful monitoring information, and critical data when diagnosing an outage.
ping - Obtain basic timing information from any of our cities to your server, useful in capacity planning, and ensuring consistent results in the global marketplace.
fast - Through a headless webkit browser we'll load the requested page, and return detailed timing information.
