Problem
Your streaming video event pipeline shows consumer lag spiking from near-zero to over 500,000 messages within two hours. You need to diagnose whether the cause is a producer burst or a consumer slowdown, then design a monitoring and auto-remediation system that can detect, alert on, and automatically recover from future lag events.
