Observability first emerged as a focal point of interest in the DevOps community in the 2017 time frame. Aware that business was demanding highly adaptable digital environments, DevOps professionals realised that high adaptability required a new approach to IT architecture. Whereas historically, digital stacks were monolithic or, at best, coarsely grained, the new stacks would have to be highly modular, dynamic, ephemeral at the component level, and spread over multiple cloud-based services.

With the rapid adoption of cloud, distributed systems and microservices are standard, resulting in increasingly complex environments. Once straightforward troubleshooting workflows have become chaotic, frustrating, and time-consuming. When something breaks, multiple teams are called to the table to prove they’re “not it”; each with their singular view of the problem.
