Interpretation · updated daily by Claude

Automated read of the latest data — bottom line, phase comparison, and notable trends.

Bottom line — Spectre_5 is healthy over the last 24 hours (response mostly in the 550–700ms band, apdex 0.75–0.79) apart from one brief overnight latency/error blip. The trailing 7-day and 13-month views show stable, unremarkable performance. Early Drupal 10 (D10) numbers, now spanning about 18 days and roughly 2M requests, are running at or better than the pre-migration Drupal 8 baseline, suggesting the migration has not introduced a regression.

  • A short overnight spike around 03:06 CDT pushed response time to ~2,124ms with apdex dipping to 0.51, alongside an isolated error-rate jump to 2.43% just before midnight — an isolated off-peak event, not a sustained issue.
  • The week of Jul 08 saw response rise to ~747ms before settling back to 612–645ms in the following weeks, a short-lived bump rather than a trend.
  • Oct 2025 stands out as the one error-rate outlier in an otherwise stable 13-month history, at 0.97% versus a typical 0.4–0.6%.
  • D10 (677ms resp, 0.39% err, 0.78 apdex) is outperforming the D9 baseline it replaced (699ms, 0.42% err, 0.77 apdex) and essentially matches the original D8 numbers (679ms, 0.39% err, 0.79 apdex).
  • Daily traffic follows the expected weekday/weekend cadence — roughly 140K+ requests on weekdays versus 30–90K over the past weekend — consistent with normal usage.

Method & caveats

  • Cutovers. Drupal 9 / PHP 8 went live May 23, 2026; Drupal 10 Jul 4, 2026 — marked on every chart that spans them.
  • Drupal 10 is an early read (~5 days). Its phase card uses the Jul 4–9 window directly.
  • Recent spike. Jul 8 shows an isolated response jump (≈2× the prior day), coinciding with elevated reports/progress-API latency that day — an operational blip, not a migration regression.
  • Source & retention. New Relic timeslice metrics (HttpDispatcher, Apdex, Errors/all), ~13-month retention — the full arc back to mid-2025 is covered. Percentiles (p95/p99) live in 8-day event data and are reported in the point-in-time reviews, not here.
  • Refresh. Regenerated daily by a scheduled routine that re-queries New Relic and redeploys to this same URL.
