Monitoring and Observability
Market competitiveness relies on two foundational aspects: understanding market demands and being able to react to those demands with little delay. The majority of this book deals with the second topic. We covered the need for autonomous delivery practices for teams and applicable strategies for testing changes, validating preview builds, and delivering updates quickly yet responsibly.
The topic of understanding - or downright predicting - current market demands combines empirical market research, heuristic feedback loops, and data-driven product decisions. Starting from a solid base of a secure, stable, and responsive application, we may begin the prophetic process of building towards organizational growth.
Through monitoring and observability, we gather information about our software in production. Implementing strategic monitoring and observability allows us to react to errors, analyze system performance, enhance our customer's journeys, and evaluate feature acceptance. Armed with this information, we can make meaningful decisions for our future development.
