User-Perceived Backup/Restore Success Rate Metrics

A backup/restore operation only succeeds when a chain of server calls all complete — I defined and automated a metric for that end-to-end, user-level success

  • Moved from per-API success checks to a success rate defined over user-operation transactions spanning the full call flow
  • Automated metric extraction with Airflow/Python and daily-refreshing Grafana dashboards, plus auxiliary metrics for failure-cause tracking
  • Drove improvement actions — success rate ~70% → 95%
Success rate ~70% → 95%

SLI/SLO Anomaly Analysis & Reporting Automation

Replaced manual log digging and chat-based reporting with an AI agent workflow

  • Automated extraction of analysis conditions (service, region, API, time window) from alert payloads, log collection, and request/trId-level clustering
  • Chained a root-cause-analysis agent and a report agent posting standardized summaries
  • Analysis-to-report time: up to 4 hours → ~10 minutes
Analysis-to-report time: 4h → ~10min

Service Runtime Modernization (Java 25 · K8s · Graviton)

Laid the groundwork to migrate build, CI, and metrics architecture in one coordinated move

  • Updated build/test tooling for Java 25; refreshed CI workflows and Docker base images
  • Migrated K8s metrics to OTLP (OpenTelemetry); set up ARM configs for Graviton validation
  • Analyzed AWS SDK v1→v2 timeout and DynamoDB behavior differences; corrected acceptance tests
