upzero + Terraform

What you get

• Monitor configuration lives in version control: every change is reviewed, audited, and reversible.
• Spin up monitors alongside new services in the same Terraform plan, so nothing ships unmonitored.
• Destroy monitors automatically when you tear down infrastructure, no orphaned checks billing you.
