    Consider using CloudWatch’s synthetic monitoring to:

    create canaries, configurable scripts that run on a schedule, to monitor your endpoints and APIs. Canaries follow the same routes and perform the same actions as a customer, which makes it possible for you to continually verify your customer experience even when you don’t have any customer traffic on your applications. By using canaries, you can discover issues before your customers do.

    You can monitor canary events with EventBridge and send custom notifications, including email.
