Metrics, Logs and Traces are often referred to as The Three Pillars of “Observability“. The term observability has been used in control theory to refer to how the state of a system can be inferred from the system’s external outputs.

Refinery, Honeycomb’s tail-based dynamic sampling proxy, often makes sampling feel like magic. This applies especially to dynamic sampling, because it ensures that interesting and unique traffic is kept, while tossing out nearly-identical “boring” traffic. But like any sufficiently advanced technology, it can feel a bit counterintuitive to wield correctly, at first. On Honeycomb’s Customer Architect team, we’re often asked to assist customers with their Refinery clusters.
Too many IT tickets, not enough time. That’s just one problem that comes with a poor employee onboarding experience, and it’s one that causes deal-breaking difficulties for new employees, and just as importantly, IT leaders in the IT service management (ITSM) department.
