Health Check Analytics and how you can use it

What's this blog post about?

Cloudflare has introduced Standalone Health Check Analytics to enhance its existing Standalone Health Checks service, which allows users to monitor the health of their origin servers without relying on third-party services. The new analytics feature helps decrease time to resolution for potential issues by providing detailed logs and data visualizations. Users can now quickly identify the root cause of problems and minimize time to resolution. Additionally, the availability of different portions of infrastructure is complemented with performance metrics such as waterfall view of a request within the event log, which provides insights into time taken for TCP connection, TLS handshake, and time to first byte (TTFB) for the request. Health Check Analytics also enables users to run health checks from multiple regions across Cloudflare's network, providing an overview of their application's performance from different geographical locations.
