Our Team:

The Proactive Monitoring & Release Management team builds systems that provide real-time observability, monitoring, and alerting for Bloomberg’s Sell-Side and Buy-Side Enterprise Products and the end users who rely on it. We collect and analyze data from Bloomberg’s global systems to provide health determinations and generate alarms, with the ultimate goal of increasing the reliability of our products for all clients by proactively detecting and resolving issues before the clients see an impact. Our users include internal engineering teams, enterprise services, and external customers who need to monitor the performance of their mission-critical applications.

The trading market is evolving to require our clients and their systems to trade higher volumes, with lower latency all while abiding by increasing regulations with higher penalties. This makes it more critical than ever for Bloomberg to constantly measure the systems that we provide to our clients and comply with SLOs. We work closely with partners across Enterprise Products, Infrastructure, as well as product, customer support and SRE teams, to ensure that our platform provides meaningful insight into system performance and our alarms deliver actionable information. Our products aid in incident response and reduce or eliminate the client impact of outages.

In order to achieve all this, we build distributed systems that run millions of health evaluations every month. We are heavy users of Kafka , GUTS (Bloomberg’s Telemetry Infrastructure), Redis and Postgres. Our backend code is written in a mix of modern Python and C++, depending on the needs of each application.
