Infrastructure
Checks are executed from a globally distributed network of nodes across Europe, the Americas, Asia, Oceania, and Africa. Each node runs diagnostics locally and reports results back in real time — so you get a true picture of how your target behaves from different parts of the world, not just from one location.
View all nodes and their current status on the Nodes page.
