SLO-Breach
Container Observability detects an alert when a specified SLO on a service response time is breached and triggers an RCA to determine the root cause for the breach.
When the root cause analysis stage is completed for an SLO breach, the Stage column in the Alerts screen will show “R” which indicates that the user can inspect the view of the possible root cause and related explanations. For more details, see SLO/SLI in Container Observability.
To analyze the root cause of the issue, click on the SLO breach incident ticket generated by Container Observability.
For the SLO-breach Alerts, you view the path that caused high latency from the Analyze tab.
High Latency Path
 |
The High Latency Path figure lists the affected services in a particular path of traffic flow along with its dependent services. If there are any anomalies in the dependent services such as pods or containers that can be possible causes of increased response time in a path.
From the High Latency Path graph, you can view the following:
The Latency SLO data is measured based on the response time taken by each individual dependent service involved in a particular path.
Click Latency Breakdown to view the following quick chart:

Latency Breakdown lists the path of high latency in which the service is affected by the anomaly.
It also lists the dependent services in a path with detected anomalies that caused an increase in latency and request count data.
You can also enable Show All Paths to view all the various paths with dependent services of a particular affected service detected with the anomaly.
For example, the following image represents the services with anomalies for a selected path.

It lists the number of paths with dependent services affected by anomalies. Among those various paths, Container Observability provides the path that has high latency of the services detected anomalies.
Note
Note:
In the Show All Paths option, you can choose a path to verify if the services are having anomalies.
You can view the details of the pod or container of each service in a path having high latency to analyze the metric health that could be one of the causes of high latency.
Latency Path Chart
The High Latency Path Chart lists the increase in response time of SLO at a particular time compared to the configured SLO value. The latency path graph describes the following:
The first occurrence of SLO latency data
Maximum latency SLO
The recent occurrence of SLO latency data.
