APIContext partners with Akamai to expand advanced API monitoring adoption. Learn more >

SLA and SLO Management

Service Levels are only useful if you can agree on what they mean and enforce them contractually.

Companies depend on APIs to enable time-sensitive, mission-critical business activities. Agreeing on and actively validating SLA conformance is essential. Third-party SLO verification prevents internal teams from hiding or misrepresenting performance and functional issues, which often creates problems for Customer Success teams.

Measure Performance


Measure API performance from where your customers and data centers are based. There are multiple regions and clouds – don't get caught monitoring from only one.

Validate Service-Levels


Base your existing and future SLOs and SLAs on real-world performance metrics. Don’t get caught offering service levels that can’t be achieved. Verify how you measure up against other services in your sector.

Generate Reports


Set and define complete SLOs and generate mutual SLA compliance reports from live traffic using the same locations and credentials as customers.

SLA & SLO Management

Set and test Service Level Objectives against your production systems to verify that your SLAs can be met and managed. Set and monitor your Service Level budgets over time and be warned if the APIs you supply or rely on will miss them.

  • Identify if resources accidentally get opened unexpectedly
  • Test FAPI and OAuth scenarios in production without writing lots of code, and leave them running 24/7

Multi-Cloud

  • Measure from where your customers have applications not just AWS
  • Be ready for a distributed JAMSTACK/SMOKESTACK world
  • Understand where best to host, where to help your customers with problems that can be fixed

Integrated Reporting

  • Easy to use integrated reporting – create your own reports, see the data you need to see with our AI assisted Insights
  • Don’t get the wool pulled over your eyes by teams with their own agendas?
  • Get unfiltered access to accurate end-to-end performance metrics that match your customer’s experiences

SLA and SLO Tracking

  • Measure Service Levels from where the user of the service is based, not from inside your stack
  • End-to-end metrics generated by tooling that isn’t part of service deliver, development or your existing APM stack – builds trust and confidence in metrics

Integrated API Security

  • Designed to work with product security for some of the most secure API stacks in the world in exactly the same way as a trusted third party would use it – imagine having a monitoring surface the equivalent of a third party in every data center
