Purpose

Service Level Objectives (SLOs) define reliability targets (e.g., 99.9% availability, P95 latency < 500ms). Service Level Indicators (SLIs) measure whether SLOs are met. Micrometer's histogram buckets (Service Level Objectives in Micrometer) allow you to define thresholds aligned with business SLOs, enabling automatic error budget calculations and SLO compliance tracking.
