Overview

What is Healthchecks?

Healthchecks is an open-source service for scheduled task monitoring (cron jobs) and heartbeats, written in Python with Django. Its principle is that of a « dead man's switch »: instead of actively checking your servers, it waits for your tasks to « ping » it at regular intervals. If an expected ping does not arrive on time, it deduces that a job has failed and triggers an alert.

In practice, we add a simple HTTP request (or an email) at the end of each task: backup, script, synchronization, application job. Healthchecks detects executions that are late, missing, or failed, and notifies via more than 25 integrations (email, Slack, Telegram, SMS, webhooks…).

The application provides a clear dashboard, an API, monthly reports, team management (projects, members, read-only access), and strong authentication via WebAuthn. Licensed under BSD and easily self-hostable, it is the ideal tool to never discover too late that a critical backup was no longer running.

Outbound email requires an external service

Outbound SMTP is blocked by design on DINAO's shared hosting (anti-spam protection for all our customers). For the email-sending features of Healthchecks (notifications, campaigns…), you will need to subscribe to an email routing service outside the DINAO infrastructure (e.g. Mautic hosted elsewhere, SendGrid, Brevo, a third-party SMTP relay…).

Detection: variable EMAIL_HOST détectée (service web) + variable EMAIL_HOST_USER détectée (service web) + variable EMAIL_HOST_PASSWORD détectée (service web).

FAQ

You might be wondering…

How does Healthchecks work?

Your scheduled tasks send an HTTP « ping » (or an email) upon each successful execution. If the expected ping does not arrive within the configured timeframe, Healthchecks considers the job failed and alerts you.

What types of tasks can I monitor?

Anything that runs regularly: backups, cron scripts, background tasks, synchronizations, application jobs. Just add a ping line at the end of the task.

How am I alerted?

Via more than 25 integrations: email, Slack, Telegram, webhooks, SMS, and many others. You choose the channels per project and per check.

Is my monitoring data private?

Yes. The instance is hosted in France by DINAO. Your job mapping and monitoring data never leave the territory.

Can I work in a team?

Yes. Healthchecks manages projects, team members, and read-only access, with enhanced authentication (2FA WebAuthn).
