Monitoring and Observability

Monitoring and observability refer to the processes used to track and understand the performance and health of systems, like software applications or IT infrastructure. Monitoring involves collecting data and alerts on specific metrics, such as response times or error rates, to identify problems. Observability goes a step further, allowing teams to analyze and interpret complex data to uncover the root causes of issues. Together, they help organizations ensure their systems run smoothly, enhance user experiences, and quickly resolve any disruptions, leading to better overall performance and reliability.
