In my previous blog post, I discussed how transitioning from legacy monolithic applications to microservices based applications running on Kubernetes brings a range of benefits, but that it also increases the application’s attack surface. I zoomed in on creating security policies to harden the distributed microservice application, but another key challenge this transition brings is observing and monitoring the workload communication and known and unknown security gaps.

Arguably, OpenTelemetry exists to (greatly) increase usage of tracing and metrics among developers. That said, logging will continue to play a critical role in providing flexible, application-specific, event-driven data. Further, OpenTelemetry has the potential to bring added value to existing application logging flows.

While Artificial intelligence (AI) has invaded many industries, the IT industry is reaping the benefits of AI in software engineering practices. The traditional method of relying solely on human coders throughout the entire development lifecycle is gradually becoming obsolete. Instead, AI-augmented software engineering has come into the arena to make the software engineering process faster, easier, and more reliable.

In my previous articles, I discussed how to design considerations for observability solutions and how observability can augment your security implementation. In this article, I will discuss how an observability solution can provide valuable insights into your business operations through the collected data from various systems, applications, and services.

You may be thinking of investing in multiple cloud vendors to increase redundancy and deal with the complexity of your enterprise requirements. You are not alone. Many enterprises are moving in this direction to take advantage of the options offered by competing cloud vendors. Adopting one major cloud vendor is a complex project that can consume a company for months if not years.
