Organizations are depending more and more on distributed architectures to provide application services. Logging provides additional data but is typically viewed in isolation of a broader system context. Monitoring is capturing and displaying data, whereas observability can discern system health by analyzing its inputs and outputs.

Full-stack observability is the ability to determine the state of every endpoint in a distributed IT environment based on its telemetry data. Without appropriate context, the so-called pillars of observability — metrics, logs, and traces — are simply sources of data, not insights. These are not only numerous but also dynamic.

Monolithic software systems employ one large codebase, which includes collections of tools, software development kits, and associated development dependencies. Because monolithic software systems employ one large codebase repository, the service becomes a massive piece of software that is labor-intensive to manage.

Distributed tracing is a method of observing requests as they propagate through distributed cloud environments. Distributed tracing follows an interaction by tagging it with a unique identifier, which stays with it as it interacts with microservices, containers, and infrastructure.
