Over the last few years, many customers have asked us to update our current public dashboards with new features so they can more effectively communicate what is happening with their checks to external customers or internal users. We’ve taken that input to heart, and we’re pleased to announce the availability of redesigned dashboards for Checkly.

You build it; you own it! It’s a simple mantra that has driven software development for years. The days of writing software and throwing it over the wall to operations teams are over.

APIs serve as the ties that bring these microservices together so they can cooperate.
