What You’ll Learn in This Webinar
Building modern applications that provide flexibility and portability can present all kinds of management challenges across the entire IT landscape. But it doesn't have to be this way. Building modern applications with observability in mind can help streamline the entire software development life cycle by emphasizing transparency, portability, flexibility and data management from the very beginning.
In this session, we will explore the principles and underlying use cases for shifting observability left with a practice called observability-driven design.
Join us as we discuss:
- Adopting open standards toolchains
- Shifting left the activities required for observability, and
- Digital transformation through process improvement
