Observability

Introduction: What’s This All About? 🤔 Modern software is complex, and keeping it running smoothly is a constant challenge. This presentation dives deep into the future of reliability, exploring how Site Reliability Engineering (SRE), observability, and even philosophy are converging to create more resilient and user-friendly systems. We’re going to unpack the latest thinking on SLOs, observability 2.1, and how understanding ourselves can help us build better software. Chapter 1: The Core Problem Being Solved 🎯 Keeping software reliable isn’t just about fixing bugs. It’s about proactively preventing problems and ensuring a consistently positive user experience. Traditional approaches often fall short because they treat metrics, logs, and traces as separate entities. This makes it difficult to understand the why behind performance issues and hinders the ability to quickly resolve them. The presentation highlights the need for a new way of thinking about reliability, one that prioritizes user experience and embraces the inherent uncertainty of complex systems. ...
