Problem
CPU-consuming processes pose significant challenges for DevOps teams due to their impact on system performance and stability. These processes slow down critical applications and potentially lead to downtime. Additionally, balancing performance optimization with maintaining service levels and functionality adds complexity. Resolving these issues often requires close collaboration between development and operations teams to minimize performance bottlenecks without compromising the overall user experience.
Solution
PagerDuty Automation allows teams to automate tasks such as restarting services, adjusting resource allocations, or triggering alerts based on CPU thresholds. It ensures stakeholders are kept informed and, if needed, it can coordinate requesting approvals from service owners while keeping systems of record up to date. Its intuitive interface facilitates the easy creation and management of workflows, enabling proactive responses to CPU spikes before they escalate into performance issues.
