Anomaly Detection - CI/CD Glossary Definition

Anomaly detection automatically flags metric values that deviate from expected patterns, for example a sudden latency spike or an error-rate jump, without a human having set an exact static threshold.

Why beyond static thresholds

Fixed thresholds miss context: traffic that is normal at noon is anomalous at 3am. Detection that learns seasonality and baselines cuts both missed incidents and false alerts.
