The concept of Observability goes far beyond classical monitoring, offering a more profound approach to understanding complex systems. While monitoring answers the question «what is happening?», observability allows you to uncover «why it is happening» by leveraging external outputs to gauge the internal state of processes. In this selection, we explore system decomposition methods, as well as the analysis of telemetry, logs, and traces – not merely as a set of technical metrics, but as a way to manage uncertainty.
