Composite queries
Do a morning health check.
Check server status across all projects,
and analyze whether there are any anomalies in APM projects.
Conversation examples
The conversations below are examples. Actual responses will vary depending on your project's monitoring data.
Example 1. Morning server check
User: Do a morning check. Summarize server CPU and memory status.
AI: I checked 3 servers.
- web-01: CPU 45%, Memory 62% (Normal)
- web-02: CPU 87%, Memory 71% (CPU warning — exceeded recommended 70%)
- db-01: CPU 23%, Memory 55% (Normal)
web-02's CPU is high at 87%. Would you like to check its processes?
Example 2. APM anomaly detection
User: Check if there are any anomalies in the Java APM project.
AI: I analyzed 5 agents.
Anomaly detected (1 instance):
- api-server-03: Response time spike (avg 120ms → max 2.3s, +4.2σ)
The remaining 4 agents are within normal range.
Would you like to check the transaction details for api-server-03?
Example 3. Incident response
User: I just got an error alert. Summarize the error situation for the last 5 minutes.
AI: Here is the transaction error summary for the last 5 minutes.
| Agent | TPS | Errors | Error rate |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| api-01 | 45.2 | 23 | 10.2% |
| api-02 | 42.8 | 2 | 0.9% |
| api-03 | 44.1 | 0 | 0% |
api-01 has an error rate of 10.2%, which is abnormal.
Would you like to check the response time trend and Active TX as well?
Example 4. Executive report data
User: Summarize this week's response time and error rate trends across all services.
AI: Here is the service status for the last 7 days.
- Average response time: 142ms (-8% vs. previous week)
- Average error rate: 0.3% (no change vs. previous week)
- Average TPS: 1,240/s (+12% vs. previous week)
Overall the service is in good shape. Despite the TPS increase,
response time has actually decreased, indicating improved performance.
