Jitter: headers in São Paulo (GRU) · J-21

xserv-j-5edb318aec67

Runbook J-21 for Jitter in São Paulo (GRU). Marker xserv-j-5edb318aec67. This page covers headers for LATAM operators, not a worldwide average.

Jitter: What operators should measure

Policy for Jitter is versioned as j-03. Operators measure error rate, p95 from Bogotá, and time-to-rollback — not a worldwide average. Changes land in Bogotá first, then Miami, with a hold if either region regresses.

Jitter: Failure modes we actually see

Capacity notes for j-04 assume rainy-season power in Miami and festival peaks toward São Paulo. The failure we actually see is a single uplink, not a cartoon partition of the whole continent. Spare ports and a second provider sit on the same runbook.

Jitter: How this letter ties to the rest

Handoff from letter J Jitter into the rest of the platform uses the same request IDs as the gateway. Runbook j-05 names who accepts the ticket after São Paulo pages out. Santiago does not silently inherit the incident.

Jitter cache J-08

Cache rules for Jitter on j-08 keep language-correct objects near Miami. São Paulo is a sibling cache, not an origin. TTLs are short enough that a bad asset does not live through a weekend.

Jitter headers J-09

Headers for j-09 carry the letter, the region (GRU) and a request id. Jitter debugging in São Paulo should not require a packet capture in Santiago first.

Jitter timeouts J-10

Timeouts on j-10 are tighter than the WAN RTT to Bogotá. Jitter in Santiago fails fast and retries once; a third try needs a human because it is no longer a blip.

Jitter regions J-11

Region names on j-11 match DNS and tickets: Bogotá / BOG, with Miami as the documented pair. Jitter dashboards never say “LATAM” as if it were one RTT.

Does Jitter on letter J share fate with other letters?
The control plane is shared. Data-plane queues for Jitter stay isolated, so incident j-01 cannot drain neighbor letters.
Where is Jitter measured first?
From Santiago (SCL) toward Bogotá. A global average is not an SLO for letter J.
