Are you getting into something new? Starting a new project, or side hustle? Awesome, that's a big step! My best advice is to get real feedback from you system and actually look at it. Look at the logs, check your analytics. See what real people do. It makes all the difference in the world, there is a lot of phantom advice out there from people who are not actually your users.

4️⃣1️⃣7️⃣2️⃣ Remember back in the day when the "Visitor Counter" was the only analytics we had? 📖 A brief history of web monitoring and observability.

I've suffered the pain of enterprise APM logging tools. 😥The pain of install.😭The pain of custom reporting.😱The pain of data held hostage. It sucks. I've been working on a simpler way. What if? 😏 No code changes, just paste 1 agent on the client.😃 Reports were pre-built, simple, and focused on real problems.😍 Affordable with automatic scaling to fit teams of all sizes. That's what I'm building with Request Metrics. Come check it out.

Many devs struggle to build "temples of logs" 🏛️ - they think they need to answer every possible question. But you probably don't need it, because most systems fail in similar ways.

🤨 Does your team know how to share? Your analytics and monitoring data, specifically. A lot of folks don't, and their data is stuck in silos, like #analytics, #perfmonitoring, #observability, or #errorlogging. Developers are in the dark about what's important, what's broken, and what needs to be faster. 🚀

Struggling with data from different tools? Request Metrics has a solution. bring all monitoring facets under one umbrella and save time with Request Metrics.

Your data is in too many places, and it's hard to understand it and see patterns. 😡 Most logging is just noise without analytics to inform what is actually important. I'm trying to bring these things together so you can spot the issues that really matter to your users.
