DDOS Attacks

I have multiple units online and one on the requirements is that the program has to alarm if there's no internet connection. One of the clients has an issue with the program hitting 1.1.1.1 to confirm the internet connection, but since the product relies on accessing a domain for a live stream camera feed, one solution I though was to hit this domain (hosted by Cloudflare) in order to check the connection. I am worried though about Cloudflare profiling these requests as a DDOS since there're too many units online and they would hit the domain every 30 seconds. Could this result in the domain being down or blocking everyone from accessing it for a period of time?
