About This Architecture
Real-time traffic spike detection system using GCP's GA4 Realtime API, Cloud Scheduler, and Cloud Run to monitor website page views and alert teams instantly. GA4 collects page view data from your news website, while Cloud Scheduler triggers Cloud Run every minute to query the Realtime API and evaluate traffic against baseline thresholds. When traffic spikes are detected, the system automatically sends email and Slack notifications to on-call staff, enabling rapid incident response. Fork this diagram to customize detection thresholds, add additional notification channels, or integrate with your incident management platform.
