Uptime

As explained in Build AI-Enhanced Web Apps

High availability is the capability of a system to remain operational with minimal interruption despite component failures.

Uptime is a deployment reliability signal tracked alongside response times. Deployment measures should reflect expected application traffic. section 9.6.2

For applications handling fewer than 10,000 requests per day, establish a reliable foundation with:

  • Basic monitoring and alerting for uptime and response times, often provided by the hosting provider. section 9.6.2
  • Simple horizontal scaling, daily backups, and basic error tracking. section 9.6.2
  • Standard security measures, including HTTPS and input validation. section 9.6.2

How Build AI-Enhanced Web Apps covers it

How deep it goes
Lists monitoring, scaling, security, backups, and error tracking for small deployments, then begins expanding requirements for medium traffic.
Examples
Uses applications below 10,000 daily requests and names Vercel for monitoring and alerting.
What it assumes
Uses expected application traffic to select deployment measures.
What you can do after
Operate/configure basic uptime and response-time monitoring with provider tools such as Vercel.
How it connects
Links uptime monitoring with response-time tracking, horizontal scaling, backups, and error tracking.
