The flip side of speeding up delivery, however, is that each software release comes with the risk of impacting your goals of availability, performance, or any business KPIs. Which metrics are relevant for your business, anyway?

What these steps have in common is that monitoring tools are not in sync with new changes in code or topology and this observability data is often siloed within different tools and teams. Observability is the ability to measure a system’s current state based on the data it generates, such as logs, metrics, and traces.
