Dynamic Thresholding

Static latency thresholds (e.g., alert if latency > 500ms) suffer from two major flaws:

1. They cause false alerts during expected traffic spikes or global network jitter.
2. They fail to catch creeping 200ms regressions on endpoints that normally respond in 20ms.

Machine Learning Baseline Calculation

SteadyStack's dynamic thresholding engine continuously computes an exponential moving average (EMA) and standard deviation variance for each monitor and region combination over a rolling 7-day window.

• Baseline Calculation: Computes p50, p90, and p99 latency per region.
• Anomaly Detection: An anomaly is flagged when latency exceeds $2.5\sigma$ standard deviations from the regional baseline for 3 consecutive check cycles.
• Runbook Attachment: Automatically embeds your team's runbook link in the notification payload when an anomaly is confirmed.
