Proactive, 24/7 Monitoring, Alerting, and Testing for your APIs
Ensure the availability, performance, and functionality of first and third-party APIs
Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) are the critical gateway to a healthy, connected digital experience. Whether the API is your product, or you rely on them to support your product, Catchpoint’s Internet Performance Monitoring (IPM) gives you the ability to ensure their availability, performance, and functionality. Run API tests as code, embedded in your CI/CD, or on-demand instantly.
Monitor. Measure. Test.
Monitor core uptime and availability
Monitor uptime and assert on response codes or any part of the header or body. Configure test retries and receive instant alerts if there is an issue.
Measure performance
Measure the http component performance e.g., DNS, wait, load, or others of single endpoints or entire API transactions. Perform advanced analyses - like histograms or any percentile – for the entire transaction or individual steps.
Test functionality across complex user journeys
Programmatically execute full API transaction tests. Store and reuse variables e.g., OAuth tokens, in the same, or different, tests.
Stop Internet outages in their tracks. We can help.
Reduce the risk of API incidents
Complete API visibility regardless of location
Monitor or test APIs from the world’s largest observability network or from on-premise locations for private API endpoints.
Trend reliability or manage incidents in real time
Schedule API tests and store raw, high-dimension, high-cardinality data for years. Or instantly run API tests to manage incidents in real time.
Give context to API monitoring data
Use AI-powered API smartboards to correlate downtime, metrics, network impact, or other dimensions in the same viewport.
Deeper Insights
Use regular expressions to turn any part of the response header or body into a custom, actionable indicator.
Ensure a healthy API economy
Ensure digital success for a hyper-connected API ecosystem and economy.
Seamless Internet Stack Integration
Drill from proactive API test data to back end distributed traces for end-to-end visibility.
Frequent tests for critical APIs
Schedule APIs tests to run dozens, hundreds, or even thousands of times a minute.
