The problem
Recurring issues such as full disks and applications going down were found late. Fixing them took longer because nobody had one place to check the state of the platform.
What I built
- A real-time dashboard showing application status, disk usage and other critical metrics.
- Email alerts that fire when an application goes down.
Result
The dashboard improved reliability and uptime by 80%. It also supported the permanent fixes for the most frequent recurring issues, which earned an on-the-spot award on the project.
