Service health monitoring, uptime tracking, and infrastructure capacity calculator
Deployment and Infrastructure
The Deployment module (super admin only) monitors platform service health, uptime, and models infrastructure capacity as department read/write load grows.
Overview
Each bank instance runs as a dedicated deployment with isolated infrastructure. The Deployment page provides live health probes and an infra calculator for capacity planning.
Key Features
- Deployment instance overview: Instance type, topology summary, and authentication status.
- Service health table: Live probes with uptime percentages sampled every 60 seconds.
- Resource guidance: Memory and vCPU ranges per service.
- Refresh control: Manual health check refresh.
- Infra calculator: Model peak-hour QPS and API replica recommendations.
- Storage monitoring: Track total used vs allocated capacity, per-department breakdown, and ILM tier distribution.
- Backup status: View last backup timestamp and department backup coverage.
Current Deployment Tab
The Current deployment tab shows the active platform services:
| Service category | Role |
|---|---|
| Data store | Metadata, workflow state, and identity backing store |
| Object storage | Document blob store |
| Search index | Full-text and metadata search |
| Workflow engine | Durable orchestration for approvals |
| Identity service | SSO federation and machine authentication |
| Core API | Ingest, search, workflow, and audit |
Status badges show Ok, Disabled, or unhealthy states for each monitored service.
Infra Calculator Tab
Model daily traffic to estimate peak-hour QPS and API replica recommendations.
Per-department load
| Department | Default reads/day | Default writes/day |
|---|---|---|
| Compliance | 500 | 25 |
| Corporate Banking | 500 | 25 |
| Operations | 500 | 25 |
| Retail Banking | 500 | 25 |
| Treasury | 500 | 25 |
Departments come from tenant setup, not Configuration.
Assumptions
| Parameter | Default |
|---|---|
| Avg document size (MB) | 2 |
| Retention (years) | 7 |
| Peak hour multiplier | 3 |
| Annual growth (%) | 15 |
| Ask AI queries / day | 50 |
Click Recalculate to update projections after adjusting inputs.
Storage Space Monitoring
The Deployment page tracks storage consumption across the instance:
| Metric | Description |
|---|---|
| Total used / allocated | Blob storage and index size vs provisioned capacity |
| Per-department usage | Storage breakdown by department |
| ILM tier distribution | Percentage of documents in hot, warm, and cold tiers |
| Growth projection | Estimated months until capacity threshold based on ingest rate |
| Alert threshold | Warning at 80% capacity; critical at 95% |
Review storage metrics regularly and adjust ILM thresholds or provision additional capacity before limits are reached. See Storage and Lifecycle for tier transition policies.
Implementation
Step 1: Monitor service health
- Open Deployment from the sidebar (super admin only).
- Review the Healthy badge and last-checked timestamp.
- Scan the Services & uptime table for any degraded services.
- Click Refresh to run live probes.
Step 2: Plan capacity
- Switch to the Infra calculator tab.
- Enter expected reads and writes per department.
- Adjust document size, retention, growth, and AI query assumptions.
- Click Recalculate to see peak QPS and replica recommendations.
Benefits
- Operational visibility: Single pane for platform health without direct infrastructure access.
- Proactive scaling: Capacity model informs horizontal scale decisions.
- Environment parity: Consistent deployment topology across development and production instances.
Next Steps
