HowFast Monitoring
Server Response Time Monitoring·howfast.tech
HowFast is a performance monitoring tool that measures the time a server, URL, or API takes to return a response. It pings monitored resources every minute to detect downtime and notifies teams via email or Slack. It also breaks down response time into DNS resolution, TCP connection, TLS handshake, data sending, waiting, and downloading phases to help identify bottlenecks.
