“Isn’t observability just a fancy term for monitoring?” That’d be the response from most IT folks a few years back if you asked them about it. And here we are in 2023, where Observability now is as imperative a term as security itself.
An Essential Guide to OpenTelemetry In today’s expeditious, highly distributed software landscape, achieving true observability is no simple task. As you strive to understand how your applications and services perform and behave, you face multiple challenges. Moreover, you need to instrument applications and services that generate data effectively, have a reliable means to transmit it, and, most importantly, find a way to visualize and derive insights from it.
The dynamic landscape of technology has ushered in a new era of data management and storage. As organizations grapple with the vast amount of data they generate and collect, cloud data management and storage have become invaluable solutions. Yet, this convenience comes with its own set of challenges.
If generative AI is innovative for enterprises in 2023, being cloud-based is ubiquitous. What that means is that the data today is extremely voluminous and complex.
