## What it is
Peekaping is a self-hosted, open-source uptime monitoring system built with Go and React, offering HTTP/TCP/ping/DNS/database/Docker checks, alert notifications, and public status pages. It is an API-first alternative to Uptime Kuma designed for automation and DevOps workflows, currently in beta.

## Use cases
- monitor website and API uptime
- self-hosted uptime monitoring alternative to Uptime Kuma
- get alerts when a service goes down
- publish a public status page for my services
- monitor docker containers and database health
- integrate uptime checks into CI/CD via API
- check tcp port and dns availability

## When to choose
- you want an API-first, automation-friendly uptime monitor for IaC/CI-CD integration
- you need flexible storage backends (SQLite, PostgreSQL, MongoDB)
- you want a lightweight Go-based monitor with low resource usage
- you need many monitor types (HTTP, TCP, ICMP, DNS, gRPC, MQTT, Kafka) and alert channels
- you prefer self-hosted monitoring with no vendor lock-in

## When to avoid
- you need battle-tested production stability - it is in beta
- you want a mature ecosystem with long-term plugin support
- you need full observability (metrics, logs, traces) rather than uptime checks
- you prefer a managed cloud monitoring service

## Facets
- artifact type: application
- maturity: active
- function: monitoring, alerting, http-client, webhook, api-framework, self-hosted
- domain: monitoring, self-hosted, networking, analytics
