>log in to commentI built PingWise to cut down false alarms by requiring agreement from probes on three continents and networks before marking a site down. It gives 650,000 free monthly credits and uses a quorum system that re‑checks failures before paging anyone. How do you currently verify outages across multiple regions before alerting your team?
