• Alert Management: Define, configure, and respond to alerts for integration failures, performance degradation, and data anomalies.
• Health Reporting: Generate and analyze recurring reports on integration health, incident rates, processing times, and platform usage to identify trends and areas for improvement.

2. Performance Tuning and Optimization

• Efficiency Improvement: Analyze slow or resource-intensive recipes and jobs. Implement performance tuning strategies, including optimizing query structures, payload sizes, connector configurations, and rate-limiting practices.
• Scalability: Ensure integrations are designed and tuned to handle current and projected transaction volumes and peak loads efficiently.
• Cost Management: Monitor and manage Workato consumption units, optimizing recipe execution to ensure cost-effective platform usage.

3. Incident Management and Technical Support

• Troubleshooting & Debugging: Act as the Tier 2/3 escalation point for all production integration issues, performing deep-dive analysis of failed jobs, data errors, and connectivity problems.
• Root Cause Analysis (RCA): Conduct thorough RCAs for recurring or critical incidents and implement permanent fixes or process changes to prevent recurrence.
• Documentation: Maintain up-to-date runbooks, troubleshooting guides, and a knowledge base for common integration issues.
