Observability goes beyond the three pillar everybody is always saying, excuse me profiling is in da house. — Observability is often described as having three pillars: logs, metrics, and tracing. While these three elements are crucial to a comprehensive observability strategy, there is more to observability than just these pillars. This is something that Charity Majors talks since a long time, as you can see.

eBPF is a powerful technology since it allows you to inject custom user-definition programs in the kernel without having to install additional kernel modules or recompile the kernel itself. — One of the strategies I mentioned in my first post, Observability strategies to not overload engineering teams, is leveraging the eBPF approach, to help us achieve observability without requesting engineering efforts.

OpenTelemetry provides capabilities to democratize observability data and empowers engineering teams. — One of the strategies I mentioned in my first post, Observability strategies to not overload engineering teams, is leveraging the OpenTelemetry auto instrumentation approach, to help us achieve observability without requesting engineering efforts. Today, I'll show you how to collect metrics and traces from a python service without code changes.

A web proxy is a perfect place to start collecting telemetry data without required engineering efforts. — One of the strategies I mentioned in my first post, Observability strategies to not overload engineering teams, is collecting telemetry data from Proxies which usually exist before your services. Today, I'll show you how to collect metrics and traces from an NGINX Proxy using Open Source solutions such as Prometheus…

No doubt, implementing a certain level of Observability at your company without requiring engineering effort, is a dream for everyone on that journey. — Today I’m gonna share with you strategies, to help you implement Observability without adding cognitive load on your engineering teams. Why is instrumentation a challenge? Well, most of the teams probably already experienced something similar to the image below.

Service Discovery is a crucial tool for environments that demand high scalability and also dynamism, and today I’m gonna show you how to use Consul to help us build a distributed Monitoring Platform. Disclaimer In this blog post, I’m assuming that you’re familiar with Thanos, Consul, and all the other tools…

Well, there's been a long time since I've started to share my experience as a software engineer working in an observability team, but guess who's back? It's important to remember that before we jump into advanced topics, I want to cover the fundamentals and ensure that engineers from any…

At the beginning of the year, I had the opportunity to join the observability team, and without a doubt, I have accepted the challenge. Today, I will start something different, the main idea is to write something like a logbook describing my challenges during my job as a Software Engineer…

In the last months, I have been writing about how to develop better APIs using an API-First strategy using OpenAPI. We could see how powerful is OpenAPI and its ecosystem. To keep the standard and show you how the OpenAPI can improve developer’s productivity and promote a better experience for…
