Aura Monitoring

What Aura Monitoring is

Aura Monitoring is a web service for checking websites and related infrastructure from multiple EU regions. It monitors websites, APIs, SSL certificates, DNS records, domain expiry, and heartbeats. HTTP and API checks can run every minute, with results verified across regions. DNS checks cover A, AAAA, MX, TXT, and CNAME records and can alert when a value changes from its expected value. Notifications can go to Slack, Discord, Microsoft Teams, Telegram, PagerDuty, email, SMS, or webhooks. On-call schedules and quiet hours help direct alerts to the right person. Public status pages support branding, custom domains with auto-issued TLS, incident and maintenance notices, announcements, and customer subscriptions. Nightly WCAG scans run in real browsers and produce alerts and audit-ready reports. The REST API offers read-only and read/write tokens, interactive documentation, and incident-event webhooks. A free plan includes 10 monitors and a status page, with HTTP and heartbeat monitoring; SSL, DNS, and domain-expiry monitors are paid. Aura says monitoring data stays in the EU and that it does not offer real user monitoring.
