Enterprise · Availability

Search should also remain usable under pressure.

Availability goes beyond average uptime value. Assess capacity, latency, error behavior, fallback and recovery on representative peak scenarios and contractually record concrete service agreements.

Peak load

Test campaigns, seasonal peaks and major catalog updates with realistic request patterns.

Monitoring

Track latency, error rate, availability, and dependencies in the same operational context.

Fallback

Define which controlled behavior is acceptable when a search component is temporarily unavailable.

Recovery

Practice recovery procedures and establish responsibilities before an incident occurs.
