We monitor Kong's official status page across 1 component. IsDown interprets Kong statuses (operational, degraded performance, partial outage, and major outage) to deliver precise health metrics and filter alerts by the components you actually use.
To check if Kong is down, IsDown combines official status data with user reports for early detection. Vendors often delay acknowledging problems, so user reports help us alert you before the official announcement.

How IsDown Monitors Kong

What you get when monitoring Kong with IsDown
Track Kong incidents and downtimes by severity
IsDown checks Kong official status page for major/minor outages or downtimes. A major outage is when Kong experiences a critical issue that severely affects one or more services/regions. A minor incident is when Kong experiences a small issue affecting a small percentage of its customer's applications. An example is the performance degradation of an application. The moment we detect a Kong outage, we send you an alert and update your dashboard and status page.
Get alerted as soon as users report problems with Kong
Kong and other vendors don't always report outages on time. IsDown collects user reports to provide early detection of outages. This way, even without an official status update, you can stay ahead of possible problems.
All the details of Kong outages and downtimes
IsDown collects all information from the outages published in Kong status page to provide the context of the outage. If available, we gather the title, description, time of the outage, status, and outage updates. Another important piece of information is the affected services/regions which we use to filter the notifications that impact your business.
Prepare for upcoming Kong maintenance events
Kong publishes scheduled maintenance events on their status page. IsDown collects all the information for each event and creates a feed that people can follow to ensure they are not surprised by unexpected downtime or problems. We also send the feed in our weekly report, alerting the next maintenances that will take place.
