What is observability? Not just logs, metrics and traces

Dynatrace

OCTOBER 1, 2021

In IT and cloud computing, observability is the ability to measure a system’s current state based on the data it generates, such as logs, metrics, and traces. Organizations usually implement observability using a combination of instrumentation methods including open-source instrumentation tools, such as OpenTelemetry.
