Use cases where reliability is put to the test

Six situations every team that answers to customers for a service runs into, and how they play out with A3.Observe.

  • Monitoring a new service from launch

    A service goes to production, and the team needs monitoring from day one, not after the first outage.

  • A database outage at night

    At 3 a.m. the database stops accepting connections, and the API and website go down with it.

  • An outage your customers can see

    The service is down for some customers, support gets the same questions over and over, and the team is busy restoring it.

  • Checking an API release

    A new API version is rolling out, and you need to confirm that sign-in, creating and reading data work together.

  • Internal services behind the perimeter

    Internal APIs, databases and brokers are closed to the internet, but their outage stops the business just the same.

  • Maintenance without false alarms

    A database upgrade is planned for tonight. Checks will fail, but there is no need to wake the on-call person or hurt the SLA.
