Richard Benwell's session from Monitorama PDX 2023.
How do we make use of the increasing volume of observability data that we collect? Observability was inspired by control theory, but current observability solutions are missing a key element of that theory: the system model. We can’t understand the state of the system, or ‘answer unknown unknowns’ if we don’t know how the system works. We’re drowning in data but starved of answers! Discover how graphs (think social network graph, not line graph) and Open Telemetry semantic conventions can help us connect the dots.
