Seiri Architecture
Seiri is a lightweight, real-time monitoring platform for webhooks, cron jobs, and background tasks.
It provides visibility, reliability, and alerting for your automated workflows with minimal setup — no projects or environments required.
Tip: All workflows are unified under webhooks. When creating a new webhook, select its type: Immediate, Scheduled, or Periodic.
Core Components
Seiri’s architecture can be broken down into the following components:
1. Event Source
- Webhook: Any HTTP request sent to your Seiri endpoint.
- Scheduled Job / Cron: Any task that posts execution status or heartbeat.
- All incoming requests are treated as events.
2. Seiri Receiver
- Handles incoming events reliably.
- Validates payloads and records metadata (headers, timestamps, status codes).
- Ensures no events are lost and supports multiple webhook types.
3. Event Logging
- Chronologically logs every event.
- Stores headers, timestamps, and delivery status.
- Serves as the foundation for retries, insights, and alerts.
4. Retry Queue
- Automatically retries failed events with exponential backoff.
- Supports manual replay for debugging or recovery.
- Guarantees delivery reliability without overloading your endpoints.
5. Alerting System
-
Detects failed, delayed, or anomalous events.
-
Sends notifications via multiple channels:
- Slack
- Discord
- Microsoft Teams
- Telegram
- Ntfy
- Webhook callbacks
-
Configurable thresholds reduce noise while ensuring critical issues are reported.
6. Analytics & Insights
-
Aggregates metrics such as:
- Success / failure rates
- Latency
- Delivery patterns
- Event trends
- Geographic distribution
-
Provides a dashboard for visual inspection and decision-making.

Tip: Use the Insights dashboard to identify recurring errors and performance bottlenecks.
