Vend Customer Story
To balance frequent deployment and reliability, Vend needs to maintain 100% visibility into each release. Vend’s engineering team uses Raygun to maintain shipping velocity by giving clarity into the root cause of issues.
When we make a request to your site to verify that your site is up, the response of your server will contain certain headers. We can verify that those headers contain the values you expect. If these expectations are not met, we'll consider your site as down. In the "Responses" section of the uptime settings page, you can specify which headers we should verify. You could add this expectation to ensure your page uses gzip compression.
