What it does

Instead of waiting for a nightly batch, this workflow reacts the instant Axiom's own monitor fires a budget-threshold webhook. It queries Axiom for the live burst window, ranks the datasets and services driving it, and turns the alert into an actionable, attributed ticket within seconds.

When to use it

Use it when ingestion can spike fast enough to matter intraday, such as a retry storm or a debug-logging deploy, and you want the offender named before the burst runs for hours.

How it works

  1. 1An Axiom monitor posts to an inbound webhook when ingestion crosses the configured budget guardrail.
  2. 2The workflow parses the alert payload to extract the dataset and trigger time.
  3. 3Query Axiom for the burst window, grouped by service, to rank live contributors.
  4. 4A logic gate confirms the burst is still active rather than a settled blip.
  5. 5Open an urgent Linear ticket naming the dataset, top service, and current burn rate.
  6. 6Send a Slack page to on-call with the ticket link and a one-line throttle recommendation.
