Observability platform vs. observability tools

Dynatrace

Traces provide performance data about tasks that are performed by invoking a series of services. They are particularly important in distributed systems, such as microservices architectures. Observability platforms are becoming essential as the complexity of cloud-native architectures increases.

What is? OpenTelemetry??An open-source standard for logs, metrics, and traces

Dynatrace

OpenTelemetry (also referred to as OTel) is an open-source observability framework made up of a collection of tools, APIs, and SDKs, that enables IT teams to instrument, generate, collect, and export telemetry data for analysis and understand software performance and behavior. OpenTelemetry reference architecture.

What is chaos engineering?

Dynatrace

But with the complexity that comes with digital transformation and cloud-native architecture, teams need a way to make sure applications can withstand the “chaos” of production. Chaos testing enriches the organization’s intelligence about how software performs under stress and how to make it more resilient.

Organise your engineering teams around the work by reteaming

Abhishek Tiwari

In this model, software architecture and code ownership is a reflection of the organisational model. Either they try to build perfect products or worse use their time to perfect their code by excessive re-factoring and re-engineering. Just like architecture, teams should be loosely coupled or better completely de-coupled.

8 Functional Testing Types Explained With Detail

Enprowess

The tests also discover a more modular architecture with subsystems that have clear responsibilities. Developers test each functionality of the software according to the business requirement , and that’s why it is called functional testing. The purpose is to endure that each unit of the software performs as expected.

Track Thousands of Assets in a Time of Crisis Using Real-Time Digital Twins

ScaleOut Software

Within seconds, the software performs aggregate analysis of this data for all real-time digital twins. “Which hospital in a given state has the most unused ventilators?”. How many ventilators currently are in repair by make?”. These questions can be answered using the latest data as it streams in from the field.
