Running observability for devices in the field is a different problem from running it for services on your PaaS. Power, bandwidth and update cadence are fixed by physics, and each one rules out tooling that would be the obvious pick anywhere else. This talk works through the decisions an IoT fleet forces on you: what to collect, where to process it when every byte is metered, how to index without labels, and why storage architecture—not query speed—determines your long-term costs.
