An Uptime Check with the Certificate Validated and the Alert Policy that Pages
A Cloud Monitoring uptime check from static-address checkers in several regions, over TLS with the certificate validated (off by default), asserting on the body when you give it text, with failures logged, and the alert policy on check_passed that sends to your notification channels. Plain HTTP and a policy with no channels are each accepted by name.
Verification
Static-verifiedPassed: validated and lint-clean (provider-schema-validated for AWS/Azure/GCP; Terraform-language lint elsewhere).

Documentation
gcp-uptime-check
A Cloud Monitoring uptime check with the alert policy that makes a
failure a notification. Works with Terraform and OpenTofu
(>= 1.6), google provider >= 6.0, < 7.0.
A check with no alert policy is a graph; the policy is here, channels required or their absence accepted by name.
The certificate is not validated by default; validated here.
Static checker addresses, so the allow-list can be written once.
Verification
Static validation runs tofu fmt, init, validate, tflint and checkov.
This module has not yet had a live test, so it is published as statically
validated with its live test pending and does not carry the live-tested mark.

Related modules
gcp-log-sink
Creating a sink creates a service account for it and grants that account nothing, so until it holds a role on the destination every export fails - the sink shows active, the destination stays empty, and the errors are logged into the project that was supposed to be exported. Grants the role with the sink, refuses an empty filter, and can manage _Default retention past 30 days.
gcp-audit-logging
Data Access logs are off by default for every service but BigQuery, so a project that never turned them on has no record of who read the bucket, queried the table or fetched the secret. Enables all three log types for allServices, narrows per service where read volume is a real cost, and requires a reason for every exempted member - the setting an intruder with IAM rights would add.
gcp-monitoring
A self-contained observability bundle: a metric-threshold alert policy, a Monitoring dashboard, and a log-export sink to a locked-down GCS bucket with the sink writer-identity IAM grant wired in.
aws-route53-health-check
A Route 53 health check over HTTPS with SNI, a search string so the page must render, latency measured, probed from several regions, and the CloudWatch alarm on HealthCheckStatus that sends to your topic on failure and recovery. The metrics live only in us-east-1 and the module refuses any other region; HTTP or TCP probes and a missing topic are accepted by name.
oci-health-checks
A monitor can be created disabled and probes nothing; one vantage point reports the site down when that location is; and a monitor is a metric, not an alarm - nothing pages until Monitoring reads it. Enabled monitors over HTTPS from three regions by default, and the MQL query each one needs in an alarm exported for the oci-monitoring-alarms module.
