Major improvements to anomaly detection in Custom SQL Monitors
10 days ago
We’re releasing a dramatic set of improvements to anomaly detection in Custom SQL Monitors. This will be released to the customer base in waves, starting tomorrow. It will be generally available to all customers in about 2 weeks.
Specifically, we’re taking many of the improvements we made to Metric monitors last year, and applying them to Custom SQL monitors that are configured to use automatic thresholds. Those monitors will see:
- Significantly tighter thresholds
- Support for “seasonal” patterns (day-over-day, week-over-week)
- Faster training of thresholds
We expect this to increase the number of alerts generated by Custom SQL monitors with automatic thresholds. If it becomes too noisy, we suggest users adjust the sensitivity of the monitor.
