When your NetScaler appliances are running in a High Availability (HA) pair you should be aware when failovers occur, as this indicates an issue on one or both of the appliances, which you need to solve before both the appliances have the same issue.

To improve reliability, we need to measure it, and to measure it we use SLOs (Service Level Objectives). Or at least, that’s what Google SRE has popularized. In practice, it can be difficult and time-consuming to identify the right things to measure, to get to the right data, and to surface the results in a way that engages the stakeholders and teams involved.

In a world of monolithic applications and microservices, responding to incidents can be a painful process, involving multiple people with siloed knowledge jumping between different tools to find the relevant data and take action.
