     1  # Kubernetes & Uptime
     2  
     3  Monitoring uptime is very important; and when using microservices it becomes even more important to ensure all services 
     4  are up and running; and get alerts when they go down. There is nothing worse then your website going down and you hearing 
     5  about it from someone else. When it comes to downtime, every second counts. Uptime is one such service which sends alerts 
     6  when services become unavailable. IngressMonitorController from Stakater automates the management of URL endpoint 
     7  monitors in Uptime using kubernetes events.
