Documentation Structure

Service Documentation Template

Each service file includes:

• Performance Summary - Request volumes, background jobs, uptime metrics
• Endpoint Analysis - Traffic breakdown by controller/action with percentages
• Critical Issues - Open incidents with severity assessment and occurrence counts
• Server Infrastructure - Resource allocation, utilization analysis, and optimization recommendations
• Background Jobs Analysis - Processing volumes and dependency health
• Action Items - Prioritized recommendations by severity (Emergency → Monitoring)
• Technical Notes - Architecture patterns, dependencies, and integration points

Infrastructure Analysis Methodology

• AppSignal MCP Integration - Real-time metrics collection via Model Context Protocol
• 30-day Performance Window - Comprehensive analysis period (July 24 - August 23, 2025)
• Multi-dimensional Analysis - Web traffic, background processing, incident tracking, and resource utilization
• Automated Documentation Generation - Claude Code with systematic data collection and analysis

Issue Tracking & Improvements

For infrastructure issues, improvements, and operational questions:

• GitHub Issues: https://github.com/ecosyste-ms/infrastructure/issues
