Automate network latency tests with Globalping and Swiftask

Swiftask orchestrates your Globalping latency tests to monitor services globally. Get precise data with zero manual effort.

Result:

Detect geographic slowdowns in real-time and optimize your application's user experience.

Manual latency testing is inefficient and fragmented

Monitoring network performance worldwide is a challenge. Manual tests are sporadic, non-repeatable, and disconnected from alerting tools. The result: poor visibility into real service quality.

Main negative impacts:

  • Lack of global vision: Testing from a single location fails to reflect the experience of your globally distributed users.
  • Delayed incident detection: Without automation, network degradations are often reported by customers before your teams even notice.
  • Data silos: Test results remain stuck in technical reports without being correlated with operational alerts.

Swiftask automates Globalping test execution at regular intervals. Data flows instantly into your management tools for immediate action.

BEFORE / AFTER

What changes with Swiftask

Traditional monitoring

An engineer manually runs ping tests from a few nodes. They compile results in a spreadsheet. If an anomaly occurs, the reaction time is too slow.

The Swiftask + Globalping approach

Automated tests run continuously from hundreds of Globalping nodes. Swiftask analyzes results and notifies your team only if thresholds are breached.

Deploy your network tests in 4 steps

STEP 1 : Define test parameters

Set targets, frequencies, and geographic test zones in Swiftask via Globalping.

STEP 2 : Connect Globalping

Link your Globalping account to Swiftask to authorize automated network probe execution.

STEP 3 : Set performance thresholds

Configure acceptable latency levels. Swiftask monitors deviations from these standards.

STEP 4 : Activate alerts

Choose your notification channels (Teams, Slack, Email) to be warned instantly of anomalies.

Advanced network analysis capabilities

The agent analyzes average latency, jitter, and packet loss by geographic region to pinpoint critical zones.

  • Target connector: The agent performs the right actions in globalping based on event context.
  • Automated actions: Run pings, traceroutes, and DNS tests. Aggregate data on Swiftask. Intelligent alerting based on dynamic thresholds.
  • Native governance: All test data is stored for historical analysis and performance reporting.

Each action is contextualized and executed automatically at the right time.

Each Swiftask agent uses a dedicated identity (e.g. agent-globalping@swiftask.ai ). You keep full visibility on every action and every sent message.

Key takeaway: The agent automates repetitive decisions and leaves high-value actions to your teams.

Why automate your tests with Swiftask
