### Conditions
@ -222,6 +220,22 @@ Here are some examples of conditions you can use:
**NOTE**: Use `pat` only when you need to. `[STATUS] == pat(2*)` is a lot more expensive than `[STATUS] < 300`.
### Storage
| Parameter | Description | Default |
|:------------------ |:-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |:-------------- |
| `storage` | Storage configuration | `{}` |
| `storage.file` | File to persist the data in. If the type is `inmemory`, data is persisted on interval. | `""` |
| `storage.type` | Type of storage. Valid types: `inmemory`, `sqlite`. | `"inmemory"` |
- If `storage.type` is `inmemory` (default) and `storage.file` is set to a non-blank value.
Furthermore, the data is periodically persisted, but everything remains in memory.
- If `storage.type` is `sqlite`, `storage.file` must not be blank.
Furthermore, the data is persisted and accessed through SQLite.
For normal use, both storage types will work without a hitch, however, if you're using Gatus for stress testing purposes
(see [disable-monitoring-lock](#disable-monitoring-lock)), you may want to use
### Alerting
Gatus supports multiple alerting providers, such as Slack and PagerDuty, and supports different alerts for each
individual services with configurable descriptions and thresholds.
