Case Study: LinkedIn improves monitoring coverage and detection speed with Checkly

LinkedIn cuts monitoring costs by 76% with Checkly

LinkedIn, a professional networking platform, faced challenges in proactively monitoring its vast infrastructure, as it relied on a reactive approach that led to delayed incident detection. To modernize their monitoring, they partnered with Checkly to implement synthetic monitoring and leverage its Monitoring as Code capabilities.

Using Checkly, LinkedIn integrated Playwright tests to run automated checks on critical user flows from private locations. This solution reduced their mean time to detection to one minute, increased monitoring coverage by 50%, and cut monitoring costs by 76%. Checkly enabled a shift to team-based ownership of monitoring, significantly improving engineering efficiency and system reliability.
