Monitoring the behavior of a system is essential to ensuring its long-term effectiveness. However, managing an end-to-end observability stack can feel like stepping into quicksand, without a clear plan you’re risking sinking deeper into system complexities.
In this talk, we’ll explore how combining two worlds—developer platforms and observability—can help tackle the feeling of being off the beaten cloud native path. We’ll discuss how to build paved paths, ensuring that adopting new developer tooling feels as seamless as possible. Further, we’ll show how to avoid getting lost in the sea of telemetry data generated by our systems. Implementing the right strategies and centralizing data on a platform ensures both developers and SREs stay on top of things. Practical examples are used to map out creating your very own Internal Developer Platform (IDP) with observability integrated from day 1.
