SLOs cover a wide range of monitoring options for different applications. According to the Google Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) handbook, monitoring the four golden signals is crucial in delivering high-performing software solutions. Service-performance template Latency is often described as the time a request takes to be served.

We thus assigned a priority to each use case and sharded event traffic by routing to priority-specific queues and the corresponding event processing clusters. This separation allows us to tune system configuration and scaling policies independently for different event priorities and traffic patterns.

In case of a spike in traffic, you can automatically spin up more resources, often in a matter of seconds. Likewise, you can scale down when your application experiences decreased traffic. For example, as traffic increases, costs will too. This can dramatically decrease network latency and its effect on the end-user experience.
