Get historical service level values for your API dependencies
ApiLab records a full (or partial, depending on your configuration) audit log of all application level http traffic going from your applications to internal and external API (layer 7 traffic). From this data, ApiLab will assist in computing service level indicators (SLI, a value) that can be matched against your serice level objectives (SLO, a threshold) to help you ensure your dependencies service level is managed (either to check they respect their SLA, or just to be aware of their observed service level).
Maintaining a good service level is not an easy task, and depending on external services makes it even tougher. If your service has some level of criticity, you can use ApiLab to monitor the service dependencies to gain control over the incontrollable. And if the external service levels are not satisfying, you can use ApiLab to easily implement fallback strategies, from stale-while-revalidate cache strategies (for read data that are better outdated than broken), retry strategies (to make the task completion eventually asynchronous) or circuit breakers with fallback responses (for critical side-effect calls that are required for the service to actually work).
