Monitoring as code is a paradigm shift in how enterprises approach monitoring their systems, applications, and infrastructure by treating monitoring configurations as code artifacts, enabling version control, collaboration, and automation throughout the monitoring lifecycle. It complements infrastructure as code by extending automation to the monitoring layer, allowing for seamless scalability, real-time insights, cost-efficiency, and resource optimization. The everything-as-code philosophy aligns with this approach, promoting a unified understanding of the entire system across different stages of the software development lifecycle. By integrating monitoring as code into operations monitoring, enterprises can realize benefits such as improved agility, reliability, and resource utilization, leading to better decision-making through data-driven insights.
