# Better Uptime Monitoring
There was a deficiency in the uptime monitoring that I noticed as we were moving and during a major network issue. Because the monitoring was in the place network as the things that needed monitoring, internet outages would result in the status page becoming unavailable and alerts not being issued. To resolve this I have moved the monitoring to site 2 which means that even if my internet is down, the status page and alerting will remain available.
This also allowed me to offer a bit more detail, as now you can see what went wrong. Is my router down, my switching, the hypervisor, the VM? Not totally necessary for me to offer that info but I know the fellow nerds will enjoy it.
