Kubernetes has drastically simplified application deployment. However, managing workloads in Kubernetes is a challenge because of their innate complexity and dynamism. Frequent bottlenecks and unpredictable application behavior can make managing Kubernetes workloads much harder. This has become simpler and lighter after the expansion of AI, which provides a more intelligent approach to managing and optimizing Kubernetes environments.

In 2024, there’s no shortage of tools to help engineering teams track team health, productivity, or efficiency. But the problem with those solutions has been two-fold. First, most only track “output” metrics, with no insight into what’s causing teams to ship slower, or resolve fewer incidents. Second, these tools lack flexibility in data inputs and metric definitions, preventing teams from building their own unique measures of excellence.
