Workflow Monitoring

Build observability systems to track, analyze, and optimize your agentic AI workflows in production

Why Monitor Workflows?

In production, you can't manage what you can't measure. Workflow monitoring gives you visibility into agent performance, helps detect issues before users notice them, and provides the data needed to optimize your systems over time.

The Observability Triad

πŸ“Š
Metrics

Quantitative measurements: success rates, latency, throughput, error counts

πŸ“
Logs

Detailed event records: what happened, when, and why. Essential for debugging.

πŸ”
Traces

Request flow through system: visualize execution path, identify bottlenecks.

Four Critical Benefits

🚨
Early Problem Detection

Catch issues before they cascade. Alert on degrading performance, rising error rates, or stuck workflows.

⚑
Performance Optimization

Identify slow operations, inefficient patterns, and resource bottlenecks. Use data to guide improvements.

πŸ“ˆ
Capacity Planning

Understand usage patterns and growth trends. Scale infrastructure proactively, not reactively.

🎯
Business Intelligence

Track workflow outcomes, user behavior, and operational efficiency. Connect tech metrics to business goals.

Key Insight

Good monitoring starts with choosing the right metrics. Focus on indicators that directly impact user experience and business outcomesβ€”not vanity metrics that look impressive but don't drive decisions.
