Heartbeat Monitoring

How It Works

Heartbeat monitoring expects periodic pings from workers, cron jobs, and pipelines. Missed signals open incidents quickly for workflows that fail without visible frontend impact.

Core Capabilities

• •Expected ping interval + grace window rules
• •Dedicated heartbeat endpoint per job
• •Missed-run incident creation
• •Operational visibility for async workloads

Assertions and Thresholds

• •Expected signal interval assertion per worker or cron job
• •Grace-window assertion before declaring missed heartbeat
• •Missed-signal threshold to trigger incident creation
• •Recovery assertion when heartbeat resumes in expected window

Typical Use Cases

• •Nightly ETL and sync job supervision
• •Webhook consumer reliability checks
• •Background processor health assurance
