Digital transformation is driving fundamental change for organizations of all sizes in all industries. As engagement with customers, suppliers and partners is increasingly conducted through digital channels, modern organizations are almost completely dependent on their applications and infrastructure. Collecting, monitoring and correlating the telemetry data generated by computing infrastructure and applications along with business data is essential to operating as a digitally focused organization.
The digitization of business processes relies on ensuring that infrastructure and applications are performing as expected. This is no longer just important but increasingly mission critical. Observability is the ability to see the current state of infrastructure and application performance based on telemetry data, including logs, traces and metrics. It provides visibility that enables organizations to ensure they are meeting uptime and service level agreements and provides a foundation for effective and efficient digital transformation.
