Algom-Stream Restarts and Zero GA Rows: A Production Anomaly

Description and use

Algom-stream restarts 55,193 times in 26 days and GA4 sync reports zero rows, causing stale analytics and system overload. The fix involves log analysis, dependency checks, and restoring process stability.

Problem

The algom-stream process has restarted 55,193 times over 26 days and the GA4 sync reports zero rows for three consecutive days, indicating severe process instability and data ingestion failure.

Outcome

Stabilizing algom-stream and restoring GA4 data ingestion will eliminate alert fatigue, reduce resource waste, and ensure up‑to‑date analytics for business decisions.

Workflow

• 1. Isolate and collect detailed logs for algom-stream to identify crash reasons.
• 2. Manually trigger GA4 sync to capture any error output.
• 3. Monitor CPU, memory, and network usage to correlate with restarts.
• 4. Investigate potential memory leaks, uncaught exceptions, or external dependency failures in algom-stream.
• 5. Verify GA4 credentials, API compatibility, and query parameters.
• 6. Resolve identified issues and restart services.
• 7. Confirm GA4 sync ingests rows and algom-stream remains stable.

Evidence

The algom-stream process has restarted 55193 times. This is not a typo. It's been online for 26 days, yet it has cycled over fifty-five thousand times.
