Observability 101 using Generative art and Rising Wave
summary
Demonstrates using generative art as a live probe and Streaming database Rising Wave to ingest click events from a React front end, create materialized views that filter and correlate high‑cardinality, high‑dimensional metrics, then feed those correlated parameters back into the artwork. Claims this pipeline makes hidden failure modes visible, shows a block diagram of instrumentation → correlation → incident response, and reports that materialized views enable real‑time analytics and action triggers for observability experiments.
