Developing a Culture of Observability

Observability gives engineers insight into how their systems function and how users experience the resulting services; it allows you to answer questions that you didn’t anticipate having to ask.

Even then, asking questions is only half of the battle. Having the tools to explore and investigate issues in your code doesn’t necessarily mean you have a culture that supports and drives the greater benefits of observability: happier engineers, happier customers, and a stronger business overall.
