Siteuptime.com but running my JavaScript every 5 mins?


Is there a Saas product like Uptime Robot or Site Uptime, but where I supply the JavaScript that will run every 5 minutes?

I want to check that my service is up by doing more than simply making an http request. (In my case I want to set up websocket and send and receive a few messages, but I'm looking for a more general commercial product)

Don't know about saas, but it would seem like you could set this up on AWS lambda, or an Azure function.

Alternatively, you could write a webpage on your site that does what you need (server-side), and point Uptime Robot at that.

With Google Spreadsheets you can run js code periodically, including making http calls.

We're currently building one. If you'd like, you can send us some ideas to be implemented at support at gentlent dot com :)

Can trigger a lambda every 5 minutes.

try http://www.uptimedoctor.com, I'm using that for my heroku project.

Try Runscope.com with Ghost Inspector.
