Guide
Observability
Observability collects the three signal types — metrics, logs and traces — from every service and makes them queryable. It is how on-call engineers answer “is the fleet healthy?” and “why did this request fail?” without SSH-ing into a box.
Three pipelines, one collector edge
Every service ships signals to a local OpenTelemetry Collector, which fans them out to the right backend. Splitting metrics, logs and traces keeps each storage tier tuned to its very different access pattern.
