I do have access to a GCP off-site server that we could use for this (off-site monitoring with a custom frequency), but we might want to recreate that host as it's been around for quite a while. We'd also want to make sure to protect against flaky checks in some manner so maybe monitoring from multiple cloud providers or something as a stretch goal?

@jvperrin i think that can achieved by using the same cloud provider and setting up a monitoring cluster across multiple AZs. It also shouldn't be a stretch goal: we want at least two monitoring hosts that monitor the OCF and the other monitoring host(s); otherwise it is not resilient and would be better to use a third-party.

I'd agree, for a robust monitoring solution there should be multiple monitoring hosts and checks on each of them, but I put it as a stretch goal because I don't want it to block getting one host working, as that would be much better than nothing.
