Paraphrase: Needs red/green top-level status lights at app level
Sounds like your executive wants the Pragmatic Programmer “build status” lava lamp setup. Basically, a red and a green lava lamp. Failure state lights the red lava lamp, success lights the green lava lamp.
(Interestingly, the concept is so old that most of the original links are now ‘404’s.)
(Alternatively, you could go with red-yellow-green status. Where yellow means one or more app faults of unspecified level detected. And simply always have the yellow light on.)
