Introducing Ping Monitoring
Released on: February 2026Atatus Ping Monitoring provides continuous host availability and network latency monitoring, enabling teams to detect outages the moment they occur. By sending ICMP ping requests at configurable intervals, you get real-time visibility into host reachability, round-trip times, and packet loss.
Whether monitoring internal servers, external endpoints, or cloud infrastructure, Ping Monitoring ensures you are the first to know when connectivity issues arise, minimizing downtime and improving incident response times.
Key Features of Ping Monitoring in Atatus:
- Instant Outage Detection: Detect host unavailability within seconds and trigger alerts to the right teams for immediate response.
- Latency Tracking: Measure round-trip times with historical trends to identify network degradation before it impacts users.
- Packet Loss Monitoring: Track packet loss percentages to detect intermittent connectivity issues and unstable network paths.
- Multi-Location Checks: Run ping checks from multiple global locations to distinguish between localized and widespread network issues.
- Customizable Intervals: Configure check frequencies from every 30 seconds to every 5 minutes based on the criticality of the monitored host.
