In Part 1 of this series, we talked about the origins of observability and why you need it. In this blog (Part 2), we will cover exactly what observability is, what it isn’t, and how to get started.

In particular, when you work with distributed systems, errors are inevitable. Site traffic fluctuates throughout the day, and any one of a system’s dependencies could also encounter an issue at any time.

A wide variety of industrial processes rely on water, and before it can be used, it needs to be treated to remove dissolved substances. Minerals have to be filtered out so they don’t form scales on equipment as water is heated and cooled, and bacteria needs to be removed in cases involving human health.
