🎯 SLA & Availability Targets
Define SLOs, calculate error budgets, and assess reliability under incident scenarios
10.0M requests/day
Peak: 30.0M requests/day
Percentage of requests that return non-5xx responses
95th percentile response time under 200ms
How to define SLOs
Start with user-facing critical paths. Pick 2-3 SLIs that directly impact user experience. Set realistic targets based on current performance, then gradually improve.
Error Budget
Your allowed failure budget for 99.9% SLO target
HEALTHY: Sufficient error budget remaining
Continue normal operations and deployments
Request-Based Budget
Time-Based Budget
Reference: Allowed Downtime (30 days)

Understanding Burn Rate
Burn rate shows how fast you're consuming your error budget. A burn rate of 10x means you'll exhaust your budget in 10% of the measurement period. Use multi-window alerts (1h, 6h, 24h) to detect issues early.
Assessment Summary
SLO readiness evaluation for My Service
100/100
low Risk✓ Can meet 99.9% SLO target
System can meet 99.9% SLO target with current design. Simulated incidents consume 0.0% of error budget, leaving 100.0% margin for unexpected issues.
Recommendations (5)
30-day measurement window smooths out short incidents but delays feedback.
Set up multi-window burn-rate alerts (1h, 6h, 24h) to catch issues early.
Create SLO dashboard with error budget remaining and burn-rate trends.
Document incident response procedures and practice with game days.
Define error budget policy: what actions to take at 50%, 75%, and 90% consumption thresholds.
