PROFILE

Matthew Kavanagh

Worked on the camunda/camunda repository to enhance observability for RocksDB-backed workloads by expanding metrics exposure and improving dashboard clarity. Delivered new Grafana panels that visualize memory usage, SST files, live entries, and write stalls, with io-stall metrics refactored as gauges for more accurate monitoring. The dashboards were reorganized to provide clearer insights, including per-cause breakdowns and unique panel identifiers to prevent collisions. Addressed cross-platform compatibility in the test suite by gating certain tests to Linux and refining OS X formatting. Utilized Java and JSON for backend development, focusing on database management, monitoring tools, and test automation to ensure robust solutions.

June 2026 focused on enhancing observability for RocksDB-backed workloads and stabilizing cross-platform testing. Key features delivered include expanding RocksDB metrics exposure to Grafana (memory, sst, live entries, writes) and surfacing with improved write-stall and compaction dashboards; refactoring to expose io-stall metrics as gauges for accuracy; and reorganizing the RocksDB write-health dashboards for clarity and unique panel IDs.
