Set SLOs
Define targets for availability and latency per endpoint class.
Use synthetic checks
Ping health endpoints and key flows from multiple regions.
Track errors and saturation
Monitor error rates, queue depth, CPU/memory, and dependency health.
Alert smartly
Route alerts by severity and team; avoid noisy thresholds and tune regularly.
