Abstract

As systems become more complex, it becomes harder to troubleshoot existing issues and discover problems early. This talk discusses why observability matters across technology stacks and why open observability ecosystems benefit everyone.

It covers an open-source stack including OpenTelemetry for traces, logs, and metrics; CloudEvents; Prometheus and Grafana; and Keptn for tracking service level indicators and objectives and automating actions.
