Observability

Observability provides monitoring, error budgets, and query latency breakdowns to help you understand system behavior and debug issues.

Overview​

Observability helps you understand how your system behaves, identify issues quickly, and optimize performance.

Monitoring​

Metrics​

{
  "monitoring": {
    "metrics": [
      "query_latency",
      "error_rate",
      "throughput",
      "index_size"
    ],
    "collection": "continuous"
  }
}

Error Budgets​

{
  "error_budgets": {
    "error_rate": {
      "budget": 0.001,
      "alert_threshold": 0.0005
    },
    "latency": {
      "budget": 0.05,
      "alert_threshold": 0.03
    }
  }
}

Query Latency Breakdown​

Break down query latency:

{
  "latency_breakdown": {
    "stages": [
      "query_parsing",
      "index_lookup",
      "ranking",
      "result_formatting"
    ],
    "tracking": "enabled"
  }
}

Best Practices​

  1. Monitor comprehensively: Track all key metrics
  2. Set alerts: Configure alerts for issues
  3. Use dashboards: Visualize metrics
  4. Analyze trends: Look for patterns
  5. Debug quickly: Use observability for debugging
