Session Name: Open Source for Better Observability

In the cloud-native era systems are getting ever more dynamic and complex. With containers and microservices architecture, monitoring, understanding, and troubleshooting systems are more challenging than ever before. The open-source community has risen up to the challenge and delivered solutions that fit the modern environment. Open source solutions such as Kubernetes, Prometheus, and the ELK stack have gathered massive adoption with developers and DevOps engineers, who also carry this skillset between companies and grow the adoption.
In this talk, I will talk about observability and recommend open-source tools to help you achieve it in your environment.
