Monitor Database Index Bloat in Python
Simulates index bloat checks for database tables using random ratio thresholds and reports alerts per index.

self.thresholds = thresholds
self.indices = {

…Auto Rollback on Error Rate Exceeded in Python
Simulate a service that monitors a rolling window of request errors and automatically rolls back when the error rate exceeds a threshold.

Simulates a manual approval workflow with threshold-based rules, random decisions for medium amounts, and logs each result with timing.
import random
