Latency: headers in São Paulo (GRU) · L-69

xserv-l-7e624471d54a

Runbook L-69 for Latency in São Paulo (GRU). Marker xserv-l-7e624471d54a. This page covers headers for LATAM operators, not a worldwide average.

Latency: What operators should measure

Policy for Latency is versioned as l-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.

Latency: Failure modes we actually see

Capacity notes for l-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.

Latency: How this letter ties to the rest

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

Latency timeouts L-10

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

Latency regions L-11

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

Latency docs L-12

Public docs for letter L stay aligned with identifier xserv-l-pack. Page l-12 is the Latency slice operators search before the homepage. Edits in Miami show up in São Paulo on the next publish.

Latency design L-01

Design for Latency on letter L starts in São Paulo (GRU). Runbook l-01 keeps a single owner, a written rollback, and a traffic split that can be reversed without a global freeze. Neighbors in Santiago only take overflow after the local pool fails a health window.

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