- DevOps teams use it to detect recurring deployment issues, so they can maintain uptime stability.
- QA engineers use it to monitor test environments and catch flaky behavior early.
- Developers use it to capture backend failures automatically during API calls.
- Project managers use it to track reliability trends for release reports.
Q: Does it support real-time monitoring? A: Yes, it continuously monitors defined endpoints or log directories for errors and anomalies.
Q: Can I integrate it with Slack or email notifications? A: Absolutely — simply configure the notifier module to send alerts via preferred channels.
Q: Is it suitable for cloud infrastructure? A: Yes, it supports cloud-based logging and can process data from AWS, GCP, or Azure services.
Q: How is data stored? A: Logs and results are stored in structured JSON format for easy indexing or export.
Primary Metric: Detects up to 500+ error entries per minute in real-time streams. Reliability Metric: Maintains a 99.8% issue detection success rate. Efficiency Metric: Processes logs with minimal CPU overhead (<5%). Quality Metric: Provides 98% accurate classification of critical vs. non-critical issues.
