Over the years we’ve learned from on-call engineers about the pain points of application monitoring: too many alerts, too many dashboards to scroll through, and too much configuration and maintenance. Our streaming teams need a monitoring system that enables them to quickly diagnose and remediate problems; seconds count!

A quick canary test was free of errors and showed lower latency, which is expected given that our standard canary setup routes an equal amount of traffic to both the baseline running on 4xl and the canary on 12xl. What’s worse, average latency degraded by more than 50%, with both CPU and latency patterns becoming more “choppy.”

But how do you get started, and what are some service level objective examples? In this post, I’ll lay out five foundational service level objective examples that every DevOps and SRE team should consider. Five example SLOs for faster, more reliable apps 1. Note : you might hear the term latency used instead of response time.

In what follows, we explore some of these best practices and guidance for implementing service-level objectives in your monitored environment. First, it helps to understand that applications and all the services and infrastructure that support them generate telemetry data based on traffic from real users. Define SLOs for each service.

For example, it is OK to send writes through one instance, and do reads from another one with full data read consistency guarantees. For example, a batch workflow orchestration system may create multiple jobs which are part of a single workflow execution. After the jobs are created, it monitors their execution progress.

The practice uses continuous monitoring and high levels of automation in close collaboration with agile development teams to ensure applications are highly available and perform without friction.

For example, a member-triggered event such as “ change in a profile’s maturity level” should have a much higher priority than a “ system diagnostic signal”. We thus assigned a priority to each use case and sharded event traffic by routing to priority-specific queues and the corresponding event processing clusters.

In case of a spike in traffic, you can automatically spin up more resources, often in a matter of seconds. Likewise, you can scale down when your application experiences decreased traffic. For example, as traffic increases, costs will too. Analyze your resource consumption and traffic patterns.
