JitterBudget

JitterBudget is a web app (with a lightweight desktop/CLI agent) that helps teams manage real-time performance by tracking and enforcing “jitter budgets” across services. Instead of only showing average latency, it focuses on tail latency, jitter, and deadline misses—the stuff that breaks voice, gaming, industrial control, and trading systems. Agents capture high-resolution timing data (eBPF where possible), correlate it with deploys, kernel/GC pauses, CPU throttling, and noisy-neighbor events, then surface actionable root-cause hints. You set SLOs in terms real-time teams actually use: max jitter, max scheduling delay, and deadline miss rate per flow. The product is honest about limits: it won’t magically fix bad architecture, but it will pinpoint where variability is introduced and quantify the cost of each change. It’s built for teams who need repeatable, measurable improvements, not pretty dashboards.
