Pulsetic Rolls Out Dependency Monitoring

The Pulsetic team has just launched a new dependency monitoring feature on its uptime monitoring platform. It answers the first question that every team asks when something breaks: Is the issue with us, or with something we depend on?

Accept & Load

Your product relies on other people’s services. For example, payments, email delivery, hosting and AI models. When the checkout process starts throwing errors or emails stop arriving, the best approach is to rule out an outage on someone else’s part before anyone opens the logs.

Choose the services you rely on from a catalog of over 4,300, and Pulsetic will email you when a provider opens an incident, every time they post an update, and when they mark the incident as resolved. There is no need to manually check multiple status pages to see if there have been any changes.

Provider Page

Each dependency monitor comes with a page on your dashboard, created using information from the provider and its own checks. You can see the current status and when the last incident was resolved, as well as a 90-day record split into major and minor incidents, the median resolve time, and response times measured from New York, Singapore, Bangalore, and Toronto. You can also see recent incidents, their impact, and their duration.

Dependency on Status Page

Pulsetic even allows you to add a dependency to your status page, where it will appear alongside your own monitors with its incident timeline. When a provider goes down, your visitors can see that this is what has happened instead of assuming that you have broken something.

There’s nothing to install, and you don’t need to hand over an API key. Simply pick a service in your Pulsetic account and it will start monitoring.
