Auto SLO in Container Observability

Container Observability monitors each metric behavior of a service and detects the SLO breach to trigger a Threshold SLO-based alert automatically. Typically, Container Observability suggests the SLO value for a metric for the last 24 hours of captured data. Container Observability compares the current behavior of the metric against its SLO to the last 24 hours of the captured SLO value. If any deviation occurs in the current metric SLO compared to the actual configured SLO value, the Container Observability detects the SLO breach and triggers an alert notification. It also enables users to perform the causal analysis subsequently. For more information, see SLO-Breach.
