Metrics Tracking Challenges

Without comprehensive metrics monitoring, teams face these critical visibility challenges:

Inability to Track Business-Specific KPIs

Standard monitoring tools focus on technical metrics but lack support for custom business metrics like conversion rates, revenue per user, or feature adoption.

"As a product manager, I can see CPU and memory metrics but have no way to track our core business KPI of daily active users alongside application performance."

Metrics Scattered Across Multiple Tools

Business metrics live in analytics tools, technical metrics in APM, and infrastructure metrics in separate monitoring systems, making correlation impossible.

"As a data analyst, I have to export data from 4 different tools and manually correlate them in spreadsheets to understand how performance impacts business outcomes."

High Cardinality Metrics Causing Cost Explosions

Tracking metrics with many unique dimensions (user IDs, transaction IDs) leads to massive storage costs and query performance issues in traditional systems.

"As a platform engineer, our monthly monitoring bill increased 10x after adding user-level metrics because our monitoring vendor charges per unique time series."

Delayed Metric Visibility

Batch processing and aggregation delays mean teams don't see metric changes for minutes or hours, preventing real-time decision making during incidents.

"As an incident responder, by the time I see the payment failure rate spike in our metrics dashboard, the issue has been ongoing for 15 minutes affecting thousands of transactions."

Limited Historical Metric Retention

Monitoring tools delete historical metrics after 30-90 days, making it impossible to analyze long-term trends or year-over-year comparisons.

"As a capacity planner, I can't analyze seasonal traffic patterns from last year because our monitoring tool only retains 30 days of metric history."

Difficult Metric Naming and Organization

Inconsistent metric naming conventions across teams make it nearly impossible to find the right metrics or understand what they represent.

"As a data engineer, we have 500 custom metrics with cryptic names like 'metric_xyz_123' and nobody knows what they measure or which team owns them."
