Self-Monitoring & Dashboards - AORBIT Documentation

An observability platform that cannot observe itself is a liability at 2 a.m. The control tower monitors ORCA’s own components so degradation is detected before it corrupts incident accuracy.

The four go-live panels (required)

#	Panel	Shows
1	Pipeline throughput	Events/sec per stage, by tier
2	Latency heatmap	Ingestion → incident; T1 p99 < 5s
3	External dependency status	Traffic-light per circuit breaker
4	Data-quality scorecard	HIGH / MED / LOW per source tool

Dashboard JSON ships in every release package.
