Concepts
Checkstack is built around a small set of concepts that compose into your full monitoring setup. Read these pages in order if you are new; come back to them as a glossary later.
Overview What Checkstack is and the mental model behind it.
Systems and groups The catalog of what you monitor and how it is organised.
Health checks Strategies, collectors, scheduling, and how a check result becomes a status.
Incidents The manual lifecycle for tracking an outage from first report to resolution.
Maintenances Planned downtime windows that suppress noise and signal the schedule to the team.
Notifications Subscriptions, in-app vs external delivery, and how silencing fits in.
Integrations Outbound webhooks to Slack, Jira, Teams, and other external systems.
Teams and access Users, roles, and team-scoped resource access.
Satellites Remote monitoring agents for multi-region and network-isolated checks.
GitOps Store your catalog and health checks as YAML and reconcile them from Git.
