Automated Couchbase Cluster Health Alerts
Every hour, WebRun opens Couchbase Capella, checks memory usage and query latency for every bucket and node against the threshold you set, messages the on-call DBA on WhatsApp the moment one breaches, and schedules a maintenance window on Google Calendar.
How do I get alerted when a Couchbase cluster is under pressure?
WebRun checks Couchbase Capella every hour, comparing memory usage and query latency for every bucket and node against the threshold you set. A breach triggers a WhatsApp message to the on-call DBA naming the bucket or node, and schedules a maintenance window on Google Calendar, so cluster pressure gets a fix booked before it turns into downtime.
- Cluster pressure gets caught within the hour, not after downtime
- Every breach comes with a scheduled fix, not just a notification
- Recovered clusters can have their maintenance window cancelled

1
Couchbase - check bucket and cluster health
- Open Couchbase Capella and check cluster and bucket-level health metrics
- Compare memory usage and query latency to your threshold
- Note which bucket or node is closest to breaching
Done when Every cluster and bucket has been checked against its threshold.

WhatsApp - message the on-call DBA

WebRun sends a WhatsApp message to the on-call DBA. - Message the on-call DBA the moment a threshold is breached
- Include the bucket or node name and the current value
Done when The on-call DBA has a WhatsApp message for every breach.

3
Google Calendar - schedule a maintenance window

WebRun opens Google Calendar to schedule a maintenance window. - Schedule a maintenance window for any cluster that's breached its threshold
- Invite the on-call DBA
Done when A maintenance window is scheduled for every breach.
How is each run configured?
Secure by default
Connect once, stays signed in
WebRun signs in once and keeps each session in a persistent environment, so every run picks up right where it left off.
Every action is checked against this policy before it runs.
Questions, answered
Will it rebalance the cluster or resize a bucket on its own?
No. WebRun only alerts and schedules time to fix it. Rebalancing, resizing, or restarting a node is left to a human.
How does it decide a threshold is breached?
It compares memory usage and query latency for each bucket and node against the threshold you set, so the alert reflects your own capacity plan.
What if the issue resolves before the maintenance window?
It reads live health metrics from Couchbase Capella every run, so a cluster that's recovered before the scheduled window can have the meeting cancelled.
