2026-01-06: Error rate for pulp_nginx in pulp service main stage exceeding SLO

Error rate for pulp_nginx in pulp service main stage exceeding SLO (Severity 4)

Problem: The pulp_nginx component had two short spikes in error rate, reaching 1.486% over the past hour and briefly violating its service level objective.

Impact: Clients of the Pulp service may have experienced short-lived errors during the two deployment periods, but service was otherwise stable.

Causes: Deployments of the Pulp service cause all pods to be deleted and restarted, resulting in brief service outage.

Response strategy: https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/build/team-tasks/-/work_items/120 will change deployment behavior to prevent causing a Pulp service outage.
