Crystal Status Pages

Learn more about Status Pages

An uptime monitoring status page for a web application showing current performance metrics and recent availability history. The interface displays "App" with "Last checked 2 minutes ago" alongside key performance indicators: 77ms average response time and 99% uptime over the past 7 days. The 24-hour timeline for March 21 is predominantly green (indicating normal operation) with a small red segment near the end signaling a recent outage. Supporting this are two data visualizations: a response time graph showing fluctuations between 60-90ms over the past week, and a week overview with daily uptime bars showing complete availability from March 15-20, with only March 21 showing partial downtime represented by a red section at the bottom of its otherwise green status bar. — When an uptime check fails, we alert you and update your status page automatically.
