Infrastructure & DevOps
Observability / SRE Consulting. $99/hr.
See everything, fix faster — metrics, logs, traces, SLO-based alerting, and incident response that catches outages before your customers do.
What We Deliver
Metrics, Logs & Traces
Full observability stack — OpenTelemetry instrumentation, structured logging, distributed tracing, and metric collection across every service.

SLO-Based Alerting
Replace noisy threshold alerts with SLO-based error budgets — page only when it matters, reduce alert fatigue by 80%.

Incident Response
On-call rotations, escalation policies, runbooks, and post-incident reviews — reduce MTTR from hours to minutes with structured response processes.

Reliability Engineering
Capacity planning, chaos engineering, failure mode analysis, and reliability reviews — build systems that degrade gracefully instead of failing catastrophically.

Cost-Effective Stacks
Datadog bills out of control? We design cost-effective observability stacks — Prometheus/Grafana/Loki for open-source, or optimized Datadog usage that cuts costs 40-60%.

Dashboard Design
Service dashboards, business KPI views, and executive summaries — the right data for the right audience, not 200 unused Grafana panels.

Who This Is For
Customers find outages before you do — no proactive monitoring, no alerting, support tickets are your incident detection
On-call engineers paged 50 times per night — alert fatigue is real, half the alerts are false positives
Debugging by reading logs on a server — no centralized logging, no tracing, no way to correlate issues across services
No SLOs defined — no error budgets, no reliability targets, no data-driven way to balance features vs. stability

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does observability consulting cost?
Our standard rate is $99/hr for senior SRE engineers. Urgent or after-hours work is $149/hr. A typical observability stack setup runs 60-120 hours — often paying for itself within months through reduced MTTR and fewer incidents.
Should we use Datadog or open-source tools?
Datadog is powerful but expensive at scale. Prometheus + Grafana + Loki gives you 80% of the capability at 20% of the cost. We help you choose based on team size, budget, and complexity — or design a hybrid approach.
What are SLOs and why do we need them?
SLOs (Service Level Objectives) define your reliability targets — e.g., “99.9% of API requests complete in under 500ms.” They replace noisy threshold alerts with error budget-based alerting, so you only get paged when reliability is actually at risk.
Can you reduce our on-call burden?
Absolutely. We audit your current alerting, eliminate false positives, implement SLO-based alerts, create runbooks for common issues, and set up proper escalation policies. Most teams see 60-80% reduction in pages within the first month.
