- What is the difference between SLIs, SLOs, and SLAs?
Answer:
- Service level indicators: SLIs are the individual indicators that you are monitoring. An SLO could depend on multiple SLIs. In the context of ADX, a few examples of SLIs are CPU usage, ingestion latency, and hot cache size.
- Service level objectives: SLOs are (typically internal) goals or objectives for a team – for example, ensuring the response time is less than 5 milliseconds. The SLOs are essentially the requirements for your alerting thresholds and conditions.
- Service level agreements: SLAs are the agreements you make with your customers and you would typically put them into contracts. For example, ensuring the uptime of your system is a common SLA.
- Configure a metrics dashboard to display the Blobs Received metric and then import some data into your ADX cluster. What do you see?
