6 Essential Ingredients For AWS Observability
Blog post from Observe
Complete AWS observability involves collecting data from any AWS service or workload, regardless of format or storage location, and integrating this data with external sources to form a comprehensive view of the cloud environment. The process requires correlating multiple data sources to understand the overall performance and relationships between services, as well as tracking historical states to analyze past performance trends. Effective observability extends beyond mere monitoring to involve analytics that help determine causation and impact, necessitating tools that can collectively analyze data while also allowing detailed examination of individual services. Additionally, data ingestion should be straightforward and efficient, enabling a focus on data analysis rather than collection.
