So, I figured it’s about time I summarized the top reasons why you as an ITOps person need to look beyond your typical IT sources – logs, metrics and traces – which are these days known as Observability data. How reliable do IT systems work via the home internet connection? Reason #1: Measure what matters from the right point of view.

Since it’s one of my favorite topics, I decided to share my notes: 34% of US adults use a smartphone as their primary means of internet access. Mobile networks add a tremendous amount of latency. The new devices and fast networks we use are not necessarily what our users are using. We are not our end users.
