-      as of the date such litigation is filed.

-      Work or Derivative Works thereof in any medium, with or without
-      modifications, and in Source or Object form, provided that You

-          that You distribute, all copyright, patent, trademark, and
-          attribution notices from the Source form of the Work,
-          excluding those notices that do not pertain to any part of
-          the Derivative Works; and
-
-      (d) If the Work includes a "NOTICE" text file as part of its
-          distribution, then any Derivative Works that You distribute must

-          within such NOTICE file, excluding those notices that do not
-          pertain to any part of the Derivative Works, in at least one
-          of the following places: within a NOTICE text file distributed
-          as part of the Derivative Works; within the Source form or
-          documentation, if provided along with the Derivative Works; or,
-          within a display generated by the Derivative Works, if and
-          wherever such third-party notices normally appear. The contents
-          of the NOTICE file are for informational purposes only and
-          do not modify the License. You may add Your own attribution
-          notices within Derivative Works that You distribute, alongside
-          or as an addendum to the NOTICE text from the Work, provided
-          that such additional attribution notices cannot be construed
-          as modifying the License.
-
-      You may add Your own copyright statement to Your modifications and
-      may provide additional or different license terms and conditions
-      for use, reproduction, or distribution of Your modifications, or
-      for any such Derivative Works as a whole, provided Your use,
-      reproduction, and distribution of the Work otherwise complies with
-      the conditions stated in this License.
-
-   5. Submission of Contributions. Unless You explicitly state otherwise,
-      any Contribution intentionally submitted for inclusion in the Work
-      by You to the Licensor shall be under the terms and conditions of
-      this License, without any additional terms or conditions.
-      Notwithstanding the above, nothing herein shall supersede or modify
-      the terms of any separate license agreement you may have executed
-      with Licensor regarding such Contributions.
-
-   6. Trademarks. This License does not grant permission to use the trade
-      names, trademarks, service marks, or product names of the Licensor,
-      except as required for reasonable and customary use in describing the
-      origin of the Work and reproducing the content of the NOTICE file.

-      agreed to in writing, Licensor provides the Work (and each
-      Contributor provides its Contributions) on an "AS IS" BASIS,

-      implied, including, without limitation, any warranties or conditions

-      PARTICULAR PURPOSE. You are solely responsible for determining the
-      appropriateness of using or redistributing the Work and assume any
-      risks associated with Your exercise of permissions under this License.
-
-   8. Limitation of Liability. In no event and under no legal theory,
-      whether in tort (including negligence), contract, or otherwise,
-      unless required by applicable law (such as deliberate and grossly
-      negligent acts) or agreed to in writing, shall any Contributor be
-      liable to You for damages, including any direct, indirect, special,
-      incidental, or consequential damages of any character arising as a
-      result of this License or out of the use or inability to use the
-      Work (including but not limited to damages for loss of goodwill,
-      work stoppage, computer failure or malfunction, or any and all
-      other commercial damages or losses), even if such Contributor
-      has been advised of the possibility of such damages.
-
-   9. Accepting Warranty or Additional Liability. While redistributing
-      the Work or Derivative Works thereof, You may choose to offer,
-      and charge a fee for, acceptance of support, warranty, indemnity,
-      or other liability obligations and/or rights consistent with this
-      License. However, in accepting such obligations, You may act only
-      on Your own behalf and on Your sole responsibility, not on behalf
-      of any other Contributor, and only if You agree to indemnify,
-      defend, and hold each Contributor harmless for any liability
-      incurred by, or claims asserted against, such Contributor by reason
-      of your accepting any such warranty or additional liability.

+### Recommended interval
+
+**NOTE**: This does not _really_ apply if `disable-monitoring-lock` is set to `true`, as the monitoring lock is what
+tells Gatus to only evaluate one service at a time.
+
+To ensure that Gatus provides reliable and accurate results (i.e. response time), Gatus only evaluates one service at a time
+In other words, even if you have multiple services with the exact same interval, they will not execute at the same time.
+
+You can test this yourself by running Gatus with several services configured with a very short, unrealistic interval, 
+such as 1ms. You'll notice that the response time does not fluctuate - that is because while services are evaluated on
+different goroutines, there's a global lock that prevents multiple services from running at the same time.
+
+Unfortunately, there is a drawback. If you have a lot of services, including some that are very slow or prone to time out (the default
+time out is 10s for HTTP and 5s for TCP), then it means that for the entire duration of the request, no other services can be evaluated.
+
+**This does mean that Gatus will be unable to evaluate the health of other services**. 
+The interval does not include the duration of the request itself, which means that if a service has an interval of 30s 
+and the request takes 2s to complete, the timestamp between two evaluations will be 32s, not 30s. 
+
+While this does not prevent Gatus' from performing health checks on all other services, it may cause Gatus to be unable 
+to respect the configured interval, for instance:
+- Service A has an interval of 5s, and times out after 10s to complete 
+- Service B has an interval of 5s, and takes 1ms to complete
+- Service B will be unable to run every 5s, because service A's health evaluation takes longer than its interval
+
+To sum it up, while Gatus can really handle any interval you throw at it, you're better off having slow requests with 
+higher interval.
+
+As a rule of the thumb, I personally set interval for more complex health checks to `5m` (5 minutes) and 
+simple health checks used for alerting (PagerDuty/Twilio) to `30s`.
+
+
+### Default timeouts
+
+| Protocol | Timeout |
+|:-------- |:------- |
+| HTTP     | 10s
+| TCP      | 5s
+
+
+### Monitoring a TCP service
+
+By prefixing `services[].url` with `tcp:\\`, you can monitor TCP services at a very basic level:
+
+```yaml
+  - name: redis
+    url: "tcp://127.0.0.1:6379"
+    interval: 30s
+    conditions:
+      - "[CONNECTED] == true"
+```
+
+Placeholders `[STATUS]` and `[BODY]` as well as the fields `services[].body`, `services[].insecure`, 
+`services[].headers`, `services[].method` and `services[].graphql` are not supported for TCP services.
+
+**NOTE**: `[CONNECTED] == true` does not guarantee that the service itself is healthy - it only guarantees that there's 
+something at the given address listening to the given port, and that a connection to that address was successfully 
+established.
+
+
+### Basic authentication
+
+You can require Basic authentication by leveraging the `security.basic` configuration:
+
+```yaml
+security:
+  basic:
+    username: "john.doe"
+    password-sha512: "6b97ed68d14eb3f1aa959ce5d49c7dc612e1eb1dafd73b1e705847483fd6a6c809f2ceb4e8df6ff9984c6298ff0285cace6614bf8daa9f0070101b6c89899e22"
+```
+
+The example above will require that you authenticate with the username `john.doe` as well as the password `hunter2`.
+
+
+### disable-monitoring-lock
+
+Setting `disable-monitoring-lock` to `true` means that multiple services could be monitored at the same time.
+
+While this behavior wouldn't generally be harmful, conditions using the `[RESPONSE_TIME]` placeholder could be impacted 
+by the evaluation of multiple services at the same time, therefore, the default value for this parameter is `false`.
+
+There are three main reasons why you might want to disable the monitoring lock:
+- You're using Gatus for load testing (each services are periodically evaluated on a different goroutine, so 
+technically, if you create 100 services with a 1 seconds interval, Gatus will send 100 requests per second)
+- You have a _lot_ of services to monitor
+- You want to test multiple services at very short interval (< 5s)
