Digital experience monitoring (DEM) allows an organization to optimize customer experiences by taking into account the context surrounding digital experience metrics. Understanding why a user is experiencing transactional or performance issues enables organizations to achieve greater observability that goes beyond metrics, traces and logs.

By defining impact tolerances as service-level objectives (SLOs) , teams can then track their performance relative to the threshold. With an automatic observability platform, teams can receive alerts when the system has burned through the impact tolerance. As a result, teams can act well before reaching the threshold.
