Case Study: TrueLayer automated payment API monitoring with 60% less effort using Checkly
Key results
The challenge
TrueLayer, one of Europe's open banking pioneers, relied on a monitoring platform that did not fully support Monitoring as Code through Terraform. With 130+ engineers and a six-person DevOps team, it needed a modern solution to automate external checks on public API entry points.
The solution
After testing and comparing 4-5 tools, TrueLayer chose Checkly primarily for its out-of-the-box Terraform provider, which let the team automate the generation of checks. Checkly's tagging integrated with PagerDuty to automatically page the right teams.
“Checkly works pretty well for us. It does what it says and it's very reliable. The automation of our setup reduced the time we spent on monitoring by 60%.”
