Hourly SLO budget sweep that freezes deploys for over-budget services
Runs every hour, checks burn rate across all your Honeycomb SLOs, and for any service over budget it sets a Vercel deploy freeze and posts a per-service status digest to Slack.
How it runs
The automated pipeline, trigger to output.
- TriggerHourly schedule
- ActionList SLOs and fetch burn rates from HoneycombHoneycomb
- LogicPartition services into over-budget vs healthy
- ActionSet or clear Vercel deploy freeze per serviceVercel
- OutputPost fleet budget digest to SlackSlack
What it does
Monitors your whole SLO fleet on a schedule rather than waiting for a deploy. Each hour it walks every Honeycomb SLO, computes which services are burning error budget too fast, and flips a Vercel deploy freeze on the affected projects. Services that recover get unfrozen on the next sweep. A single Slack digest summarizes who is frozen and why.
When to use it
Use it when you operate many services and want continuous error-budget enforcement that does not depend on someone pushing a deploy. Ideal for platform or SRE teams running a fleet-wide budget policy.
How it works
- 1An hourly schedule triggers the sweep.
- 2The workflow lists all SLOs and fetches each one's current burn rate from Honeycomb.
- 3A branch partitions services into over-budget and healthy sets.
- 4For over-budget services it sets a deploy freeze via the Vercel API; recovered services are unfrozen.
- 5It posts a per-service Slack digest showing frozen, unfrozen, and at-risk SLOs with current burn rates.
