LAYER 3 · INFRA · STAGE 3

Observability for FDEs

Quick answer

Logs, metrics and traces that show how a system behaves. If you cannot see a deployment working, you cannot prove it works.

Practise it

  1. 1. Add structured logs and a trace id
  2. 2. Chart latency and error rate
  3. 3. Set one alert that a human would act on

Where it sits

Stage 3 of the roadmap: Cloud and deployment. You can ship code to an environment you do not own and see it running.
