Summary
Cloudflare introduces two new tools to help users understand and respond faster to origin server downtime. Standalone Health Checks notify users as soon as problems are detected at their origin server without needing a Cloudflare Load Balancer. Passive Origin Monitoring automatically notifies users when a problem occurs, with no configuration required. Additionally, Zero-Downtime Failover can automatically prevent failures by retrying requests to the origin. These features aim to improve application reliability and enhance brand trust for customers on Pro, Business, or Enterprise plans.
