Uptime Kuma

Outside-in monitoring for websites and services with response time graphs and status pages.

Self-hosted Uptime Kuma
Uptime Kuma dashboard with uptime checks
Dashboard for HTTP/TCP/ICMP checks and response times.
Status page example
Clean status view for sharing current availability externally.

What I run

  • Containerised Uptime Kuma behind HTTPS with periodic backups
  • Monitors for public endpoints (Portfolio, Staging, WireGuard UI, Zabbix, etc.)
  • Notifications tuned to avoid noise (grouping + minimum interval)
  • Status page for quick "are we up?" visibility

Snippets

docker-compose example:

version: "3.8"
services:
  uptime-kuma:
    image: louislam/uptime-kuma:1
    container_name: uptime-kuma
    restart: unless-stopped
    ports:
      - "3001:3001"
    volumes:
      - /opt/uptime-kuma:/app/data
    environment:
      - TZ=Europe/London

I keep Kuma for the outside view and Zabbix for deep metrics/alerts—together they cover most failure modes.
