SLO Driven Metrics to Align Business Teams

AppDynamics and Nobl9 offer an integrated approach to service reliability by adopting, measuring, and optimizing SLOs.

AppDynamics is exceptional at providing detailed metrics and traces across applications, such as response times, error rates, and transaction flow. However, while it gives a real-time view of performance, interpreting these metrics in terms of business goals can be difficult. This is where Nobl9 adds significant value. By transforming AppDynamics data into Service Level Objectives (SLOs), Nobl9 allows teams to set measurable performance targets that align with customer expectations, like ensuring 99% of transactions meet a sub-second response time or limiting error rates.

SLOs add precision to AppDynamics’ raw data, helping teams focus on what directly impacts the user experience. Nobl9’s SLO-driven approach allows businesses to prioritize and optimize the most critical aspects of application performance, enabling faster decision-making and reducing downtime. For example, instead of just tracking general performance, Nobl9 can notify teams if certain SLOs (like uptime or latency) are at risk of being breached. This ensures that teams can fix issues before they affect end users, translating AppDynamics' monitoring capabilities into proactive management of service reliability.

User-centric Reliability

Across the world, companies are pioneering new approaches to reliability by adopting, measuring, and optimizing Service Level Objectives. However, these SLOs have become more than reliability goals, they directly reflect the end-users’ perspective and experience with a brand’s application. Now, reliability must encompass not only availability, but many other measurements such as quality, dependability, and responsiveness.

An Integrated Approach to Service Reliability

AppDynamics provides complete visibility across the technology stack by collecting metrics, to be used by Nobl9 as SLIs across applications. Nobl9 evaluates these metrics against reliability goals for those metrics, in the form of SLOs. Nobl9 provides real-time and historical SLO reports against the SLIs, thereby allowing customers to uncover bottlenecks, errors, and issues faster. Since Nobl9 calculates error budgets of acceptable thresholds, it can trigger workflows and alerts when the error burn rate is too high or has been exceeded. This gives customers the necessary warnings to fix issues before an SLO is violated.
