Observability is More than Logs, Metrics & Traces
summary
Explains that observability is a property of systems rather than a fixed set of tools (logs, metrics, traces) and argues for a holistic approach that includes external checks and business-aligned events. Describes turning logs into richer, business-relevant events and using broader monitoring (e.g., DNS/external health checks) to reveal issues that the log/metric/trace “trifecta” alone can miss.
