Incident managers
Get to the cause before the bridge call does.
Every team on the call can prove its own part is healthy, and nobody can see across all of them. Pindot can. Ask what is wrong, and get the probable cause, the records behind it and a suggested fix, while the call is still being set up.
- The probable cause, in plain language
- The exact records it rests on, from every system
- A suggested fix, filed to Jira with the evidence attached
Question: Why is payments returning 5xx since 02:14?
Answer: The payments database ran out of connections. Release 4.18 went out at 02:10 and lowered the pool size from 50 to 10 [1]. Connection waits started at 02:12 [2], and the gateway began returning 503 at 02:14 [3].
Suggested fix: Restore the payments pool to 50 connections
