Service Level Indicator

Definition

An SLI is the actual measured metric that quantifies a service's behavior — such as request latency, error rate, or throughput. SLIs are the raw data that determine whether SLOs are being met.

Choosing the right SLIs is critical: they should reflect what users actually experience, not just what's easy to measure.
