Expectations

What are we expecting to happen?

Obtaining union between number of events will be possible upon collecting usage ping data.

What might happen if this goes wrong?

  • collecting usage ping may get broken
  • It may increase load put onto Redis when number of unions will be calculated

What can we monitor to detect problems with this?

Incoming usage ping as it is done at #251010 (closed)

Monitor Redis dashboard as it was done at https://gitlab.com/gitlab-com/gl-infra/infrastructure/-/issues/11551
