DATA OPS
Axiom Ingest Spike Attribution to Top Offending Service
When daily Axiom ingestion volume jumps above its rolling baseline, this workflow groups the spike by service label, names the single biggest contributor.

The automated pipeline, trigger to output.

What it does
Watches your Axiom ingestion volume and, the moment a day's bytes-ingested crosses a percentage threshold over the trailing 7-day average, breaks the excess down by `service` label so you know exactly which emitter blew up the bill. It then files a Linear ticket pre-loaded with the numbers and pings the on-call data channel.
When to use it
Run it on any Axiom dataset where multiple services share one ingest pipeline and a single chatty deploy can quietly 3x your storage cost before anyone notices on the invoice.
How it works
- 1A daily schedule fires after midnight UTC once the prior day is fully ingested.
- 2Query Axiom for yesterday's total ingested bytes plus the trailing 7-day average.
- 3A logic gate checks whether yesterday exceeds the baseline by more than the configured percentage; if not, the run ends quietly.
- 4On a breach, query Axiom again grouped by `service` to rank contributors and isolate the top offender.
- 5Open a Linear issue titled with the service name, spike size, and estimated incremental cost.
- 6Post a summary with the Linear link to the Slack data-ops channel.

- 3Connect SlackChannels, DMs, threads, mentions.
- 4Set each agent's modelWe leave models unset so you pick the tier — fast + cheap, or top-quality.
- 5Tune it to your dataEdit the prompts, filters, and field mappings so it matches how your team works.
- 6Test, then turn it onRun once against a sample, confirm the output, then enable the trigger.
