Join the O11Y Professor, Perry Correll, and Ed Bailey as they discuss Observability and why it matters to your business. In this module, the two will talk through if Observability is a tool or a concept, how it plays into network resilience / reliability and if these concepts are different for various IT teams.

In this next module of our Observability Professor series, Perry dives into the realm of observability and focuses on the investigators – those who seek specific insights. Before digging into data collection, pipelines, and search mechanisms, we need to pinpoint exactly what we're searching for. This session will explore the "who" and the "why" behind these inquiries because, in most organizations, the data collected may be similar, but the emphasis placed on different aspects and the tools required can vary significantly. It's all about tailoring observability to your unique needs.

Data is the foundation of our Observability journey. Often when talking about O11Y, you may think of the 3 pillars – metrics, traces, and logs. Within this module, Professor Correll will discuss these and the various categories of data that are both generated and gathered. Additionally, the module will examine how a single dataset can hold distinct levels of significance across various departments.

In this module, Professor Correll discusses Observability Components and Tools. This segment touches on agents and sources, with the general principle being that each source typically associates with one or more dedicated agents. Additionally, the module will explore the significance of logging and monitoring as crucial elements for sustaining peak application performance. The module also addresses topics such as analytics, infrastructure, and concluding with a focus on pipelines and integration.

Tune into this session and gain insights from our Observability Professor, Perry Correll, as he dives into the concept of Observability Pipelines. Imagine the possibilities of consolidating data collection and processing for various event types, including metrics, logs, and traces. By unifying data collection, you can minimize the need for redundant agents, duplicate instrumentation, and multiple collection systems.

When you create, collect, and store data, there comes a time when you need to find specific information. Think about it – when you're at your computer and need to locate a particular file, a tool like Grep is handy. So, why invest time and resources in collecting, centralizing, and indexing data just for a simple search?

But here's the twist – sometimes, collecting and indexing data is precisely what you need. While many effective data search tools exist, the fact that there are many tools doesn't mean there's no room for improvement.

Think of your toolbox at home – you probably have some excellent tools, but how often do you add a new one that offers something different? It typically doesn't replace anything; it just adds an extra capability. In this module, we'll explore your options for searching your data, helping you make the most of your data management toolbox.
