As a Developer, you want your application to stay up and perform well, and if things go wrong, find the root cause of the issue and resolve it quickly. This is achieved through robust Observability, enabling insight into both application and infrastructure components.

In this presentation, we will explore modern observability and instrumentation approaches, focusing on the Pillars of Observability - “Metrics, Logs, Traces”. We’ll delve into the OpenTelemetry (OTEL) framework and dynamic instrumentation with eBPF. Additionally, we’ll address challenges posed by modern architectures, such as microservices, and discuss strategies to overcome them.
