Metrics, logs , and traces make up three vital prongs of modern observability. Together with metrics, three sources of data help IT pros identify the presence and causes of performance problems, user experience issues, and potential security threats. Most infrastructure and applications generate logs.

Due to the loose coupling, we observed that many teams spent considerable effort building duplicative data-fetching code and aggregation layers to support their product needs. We also observed fewer instances of data inconsistency across different UI applications, as every field in GraphQL resolves to a single piece of data-fetching code.
