Root Causes Overview

Modern cloud native application architectures offer many benefits, but they also introduce new challenges. A small issue in one area—whether in code or infrastructure—can quickly snowball, impacting other parts of the system and ultimately disrupting user experience.

With more than 100 types of root causes captured in our Causal Models, Causely can pinpoint hundreds of thousands of potential issues and their effects within your environment.

Application

Root causes caused by code issues, including bugs, logic errors, and inefficient algorithms.

Infrastructure

Root causes caused by infrastructure resources such as compute, networking, and storage.

Data Pipeline

Root causes degrading performance of data flow, API endpoints, and inter-system data processing.

Release Management

Root causes caused by code changes, deployments, and version updates.

Service

Root causes caused by service bottleneck or malfunctioning, either internal or third-party external services.
