What is Video Observability?

Due to the cancellation of NAB, Mux plans to share new features and improvements through a series of blog posts focused on enhancing video stream visibility. These updates aim at improving developer experience, increasing operational efficiency, and boosting transparency in observability. Observability is crucial for understanding technical workflows via detailed logging, tracing, and monitoring across services. Video observability encompasses various aspects such as end-user quality of experience measurements, CDN logs, packager metrics, origin and storage performance, encoder quality monitoring, CDN switching, engagement metrics, and churn prediction. Monitoring tracks the performance of a resource over time while observability provides detailed information about user experiences and system functioning for specific viewers. Mux Data allows developers to monitor stream performance in real-time and observe individual viewer sessions, helping diagnose issues and improve the video experience.
