Uptime Monitoring

Uptime monitoring functionality is configured through BetterStack's dashboard.

Setting up monitoring

When you create your project, I recommend adding some specific URLs to monitor. Assuming we're using next-forge.com and it's subdomains, here's what you should add:

1. next-forge.com - the web project, should be up if the index page returns a successful response.
2. app.next-forge.com - the app project, should be up if the index page returns a successful response.
3. api.next-forge.com/health - the api project, should be up if the health route returns a successful response. This is a stub endpoint that runs on Edge runtime so it's very quick.

Usage in the UI

next-forge provides a Status component from @repo/observability that displays the current status of the application. You can see an example of this in the website footer.

The status component shows 3 potential states:

• All systems normal - 100% of the uptime monitors are reporting up
• Partial outage - at least one uptime monitor is reporting down
• Degraded performance - 0% of the uptime monitors are reporting up

This functionality relies on the BETTERSTACK_API_KEY and BETTERSTACK_URL environment variables.
