Composite Monitoring
Composite monitors roll multiple checks into one logical service — site up AND api responding AND database accepting — so your status page reflects the dependency truth, not a single green endpoint.
One service is really five checks wearing a trench coat
What it checks
- Aggregated up/down across grouped monitors
- Degraded states when part of the group fails
- Service-level uptime for status pages and SLAs
Set it up
- 1Create a composite monitor and select member checks
- 2Choose the aggregation rule (all-up, quorum, weighted)
- 3Use it as the status-page and SLA source
FAQ
Why composite instead of just listing all monitors?
A status page saying 'API down' while the site still serves is honest; five separate red flags saying 'everything broken' when only Redis dropped is noise. Composites express what users actually experience.
