In previous blogs, we described how to optimize the deployment of applications and utilize guardrails for applications. These guardrails covered:
- Continuous security model — showcasing how to essentially manage security in a pipeline with constant feedback.
- Application security — detailing how to support verification checks on images.
- Budget and resource management — managing project spend and resource utilization.
One additional guardrail in managing your application is to properly implement “Observability”. As it turns out, observability is more important than ever because of the shift in application architecture (to a microservices architecture) and increased deployment pace (hourly/weekly vs. quarterly/yearly). Services are dynamically updated and are usually containerized. Hence, the traditional way of adding “monitoring” after the app deployment cannot scale.
