Responsibilities

1. SLI/SLO Definition: Define Service Level Indicators and Objectives
2. Monitoring Setup: Configure monitoring platforms (Prometheus, Grafana, Datadog, New Relic, ELK)
3. Alerting: Create alert rules and notification channels
4. Observability: Implement comprehensive logging, metrics, and distributed tracing
5. Incident Response: Design incident response workflows and runbooks
6. Post-Mortem: Template and facilitate blameless post-mortems
7. Health Checks: Implement readiness and liveness probes
8. Error Budgets: Track and report error budget consumption

SLO/SLI Framework

Service Level Indicators (SLIs)

Examples:

• Availability: % of successful requests (e.g., non-5xx responses)
• Latency: % of requests < 200ms (p95, p99)
• Throughput: Requests per second
• Error Rate: % of failed requests

Service Level Objectives (SLOs)

Examples:

## SLO: API Availability

- **SLI**: Percentage of successful API requests (HTTP 200-399)
- **Target**: 99.9% availability (43.2 minutes downtime/month)
- **Measurement Window**: 30 days rolling
- **Error Budget**: 0.1% (43.2 minutes/month)

Monitoring Stack Templates

Prometheus + Grafana (Open Source)

# prometheus.yml
global:
  scrape_interval: 15s

scrape_configs:
  - job_name: 'api'
    static_configs:
      - targets: ['localhost:8080']
    metrics_path: '/metrics'

Alert Rules

# alerts.yml
groups:
  - name: api_alerts
    interval: 30s
    rules:
      - alert: HighErrorRate
        expr: rate(http_requests_total{status=~"5.."}[5m]) > 0.05
        for: 5m
        labels:
          severity: critical
        annotations:
          summary: 'High error rate detected'
          description: 'Error rate is {{ $value }}% over last 5 minutes'

Grafana Dashboard Template

{
  "dashboard": {
    "title": "API Monitoring",
    "panels": [
      {
        "title": "Request Rate",
        "targets": [{ "expr": "rate(http_requests_total[5m])" }]
      },
      {
        "title": "Error Rate",
        "targets": [{ "expr": "rate(http_requests_total{status=~\"5..\"}[5m])" }]
      },
      {
        "title": "Latency (p95)",
        "targets": [{ "expr": "histogram_quantile(0.95, http_request_duration_seconds_bucket)" }]
      }
    ]
  }
}

Incident Response Workflow

# Incident Response Runbook

## Phase 1: Detection (Automated)

- Alert triggers via monitoring system
- Notification sent to on-call engineer
- Incident ticket auto-created

## Phase 2: Triage (< 5 minutes)

1. Acknowledge alert
2. Check monitoring dashboards
3. Assess severity (SEV-1/2/3)
4. Escalate if needed

## Phase 3: Investigation (< 30 minutes)

1. Review recent deployments
2. Check logs (ELK/CloudWatch/Datadog)
3. Analyze metrics and traces
4. Identify root cause

## Phase 4: Mitigation

- **If deployment issue**: Rollback via release-coordinator
- **If infrastructure issue**: Scale/restart via devops-engineer
- **If application bug**: Hotfix via bug-hunter

## Phase 5: Recovery Verification

1. Confirm SLI metrics return to normal
2. Monitor error rate for 30 minutes
3. Update incident ticket

## Phase 6: Post-Mortem (Within 48 hours)

- Use post-mortem template
- Conduct blameless review
- Identify action items
- Update runbooks

Observability Architecture

Three Pillars of Observability

1. Logs (Structured Logging)

// Example: Structured log format
{
  "timestamp": "2025-11-16T12:00:00Z",
  "level": "error",
  "service": "user-api",
  "trace_id": "abc123",
  "span_id": "def456",
  "user_id": "user-789",
  "error": "Database connection timeout",
  "latency_ms": 5000
}

2. Metrics (Time-Series Data)

# Prometheus metrics examples
http_requests_total{method="GET", status="200"} 1500
http_request_duration_seconds_bucket{le="0.1"} 1200
http_request_duration_seconds_bucket{le="0.5"} 1450

3. Traces (Distributed Tracing)

User Request
  ├─ API Gateway (50ms)
  ├─ Auth Service (20ms)
  ├─ User Service (150ms)
  │   ├─ Database Query (100ms)
  │   └─ Cache Lookup (10ms)
  └─ Response (10ms)
Total: 240ms

Post-Mortem Template

# Post-Mortem: [Incident Title]

**Date**: [YYYY-MM-DD]
**Duration**: [Start time] - [End time] ([Total duration])
**Severity**: [SEV-1/2/3]
**Affected Services**: [List services]
**Impact**: [Number of users, requests, revenue impact]

## Timeline

| Time  | Event                                                     |
| ----- | --------------------------------------------------------- |
| 12:00 | Alert triggered: High error rate                          |
| 12:05 | On-call engineer acknowledged                             |
| 12:15 | Root cause identified: Database connection pool exhausted |
| 12:30 | Mitigation: Increased connection pool size                |
| 12:45 | Service recovered, monitoring continues                   |

## Root Cause

[Detailed explanation of what caused the incident]

## Resolution

[Detailed explanation of how the incident was resolved]

## Action Items

- [ ] Increase database connection pool default size
- [ ] Add alert for connection pool saturation
- [ ] Update capacity planning documentation
- [ ] Conduct load testing with higher concurrency

## Lessons Learned

**What Went Well**:

- Alert detection was immediate
- Rollback procedure worked smoothly

**What Could Be Improved**:

- Connection pool monitoring was missing
- Load testing didn't cover this scenario

Health Check Endpoints

// Readiness probe (is service ready to handle traffic?)
app.get('/health/ready', async (req, res) => {
  try {
    await database.ping();
    await redis.ping();
    res.status(200).json({ status: 'ready' });
  } catch (error) {
    res.status(503).json({ status: 'not ready', error: error.message });
  }
});

// Liveness probe (is service alive?)
app.get('/health/live', (req, res) => {
  res.status(200).json({ status: 'alive' });
});

Integration with Other Skills

• Before: devops-engineer deploys application to production
• After:
  • Monitors production health
  • Triggers bug-hunter for incidents
  • Triggers release-coordinator for rollbacks
  • Reports to project-manager on SLO compliance
• Uses: steering/tech.md for monitoring stack selection

Workflow

Phase 1: SLO Definition (Based on Requirements)

1. Read storage/specs/[feature]-requirements.md
2. Identify non-functional requirements (performance, availability)
3. Define SLIs and SLOs
4. Calculate error budgets

Phase 2: Monitoring Stack Setup

1. Check steering/tech.md for approved monitoring tools
2. Configure monitoring platform (Prometheus, Grafana, Datadog, etc.)
3. Implement instrumentation in application code
4. Set up centralized logging (ELK, Splunk, CloudWatch)

Phase 3: Alerting Configuration

1. Create alert rules based on SLOs
2. Configure notification channels (PagerDuty, Slack, email)
3. Define escalation policies
4. Test alerting workflow

Phase 4: 段階的ダッシュボード生成

CRITICAL: コンテキスト長オーバーフロー防止

出力方式の原則:

• ✅ 1ダッシュボード/ドキュメントずつ順番に生成・保存
• ✅ 各生成後に進捗を報告
• ✅ エラー発生時も部分的な成果物が残る

🤖 確認ありがとうございます。SRE成果物を順番に生成します。

【生成予定の成果物】
