What you need to know
What should be monitored immediately after migration?
Monitor availability, errors, latency, checkout, payments, orders, inventory, integrations, search crawling and support demand. Compare each signal with a baseline and an agreed threshold.
Which metrics should be monitored on launch day?
Watch traffic, product views, add-to-cart, checkout completion, payment success, order creation, errors, latency and support contacts. Segment by market, device and payment method so a local failure is not hidden.
Which errors should trigger immediate investigation?
Investigate payment/order mismatches, duplicate transactions, missing orders, inventory overselling, widespread login failures, severe 4xx/5xx increases, and broken integrations immediately. Thresholds should reflect customer and financial harm.
How should payment success be monitored?
Compare authorization and capture success by method, provider, market and error code with the baseline. Reconcile successful gateway events to orders and alert on duplicates or unmatched payments.
How should order creation be monitored?
Track orders created per checkout attempt, creation errors, missing confirmations, and processing delay. Reconcile order IDs with payment and inventory events to expose partial failures.
How should search and SEO crawling be monitored?
Monitor crawler access, status codes, redirects, sitemap processing, index coverage and priority landing-page impressions. Separate expected recrawling from blocked or misdirected URLs.
How long should enhanced post-migration monitoring continue?
Continue enhanced monitoring until traffic, transactions, errors and operations are stable across normal and peak cycles, and all critical exceptions are resolved. Define the exit criteria before launch.
