Observability for Delivery Teams

Deploy-time instrumentation, SLO tracking, and error budget management.

Observability as a Delivery Tool

Most teams think of observability as an ops concern. But for delivery teams, observability is a deployment safety net. If you can't see the impact of your deploy in real time, you're flying blind.

CloudPresto instruments your deployment pipeline with observability so your team knows within minutes whether a deploy is healthy or not.

What We Instrument

Deploy Events

Every deploy is annotated in your dashboards. Before/after comparison with one click. Correlate any metric change with the deploy that caused it.

SLI/SLO Tracking

Service Level Indicators defined and tracked against Service Level Objectives. Error budget burn rate alerting tells you when you're spending your reliability budget too fast.

Canary Metrics

Real-time comparison between canary and baseline traffic during deployments. Automated scoring drives promote/rollback decisions without human judgment.

Error Budget Management

Your SLO defines how much unreliability your users will tolerate. The gap between 100% and your SLO is your error budget, and it's a finite resource.

  • Budget is healthy: ship aggressively, experiment, take calculated risks
  • Budget is burning fast: slow down deploys, focus on stability, investigate root causes
  • Budget is exhausted: freeze non-critical changes, all hands on reliability
Error budgets align engineering and business. Instead of arguing about "is this stable enough," you have a quantitative answer. The budget tells you whether to prioritize features or reliability, objectively.
