Synthetic Monitoring

Test applications and services by creating checks that continuously run against remote targets from probe locations around the world, and assess their availability, performance, and correctness.

Overview

Synthetic Monitoring is a black box monitoring solution provided as part of Grafana Cloud. It lets you assess your systems’ availability, performance, and correctness by emulating user behavior from global probe locations.

Each execution of a check simulates a single user performing a single iteration from one location. This ensures consistent, lightweight monitoring that reflects real-world access patterns and allows for alerting and predictable scheduling.
