Infrastructure as code is a way to automate infrastructure provisioning and management. In this blog, I explore how Dynatrace has made cloud automation attainable—and repeatable—at scale by embracing the principles of infrastructure as code. Infrastructure-as-code. But how does it work in practice?

These resources generate vast amounts of data in various locations, including containers, which can be virtual and ephemeral, thus more difficult to monitor. These challenges make AWS observability a key practice for building and monitoring cloud-native applications. EC2 is ideally suited for large workloads with constant traffic.

Without the ability to see the logs that are relevant to your service, infrastructure, or cloud function—at exactly the right time and in exactly the right format—your cloud or DevOps engineers lose the ability to find the root causes of the issues they troubleshoot. Managing this change is difficult.

Unified observability is the ability to know how systems and infrastructure are performing based on the data they generate, such as logs, metrics, and traces. In modern cloud environments, every piece of hardware, software, cloud infrastructure component, container, open-source tool, and microservice generates records of every activity.

For example: Infrastructure services might provide data about request timings that can give you a precise overview of system health, but the data is logged in a custom format. Even worse, if your service logs record critical events such as errors in a non-standard way, those errors might go unnoticed by your observability team.
