Observability Workshop: Metrics, Tracing & Logging

Observability in Modern DevOps: Metrics, Tracing & Logging Explained

Overview

Implement a modern observability stack that combines metrics, traces, and logs for faster troubleshooting. Monitor complex systems using Prometheus, Grafana, and OpenTelemetry.

What will you learn:

Configure metrics collection and visualize data in dashboards Trace distributed services to pinpoint performance bottlenecks Centralize logs and set up actionable alerts

Observability ensures that distributed systems remain reliable, performant, and secure. This training guides attendees through essential tools and techniques for collecting and analyzing metrics, logs, and traces. Participants will learn how to implement observability with popular solutions such as Prometheus, Grafana, and OpenTelemetry, enabling teams to identify and resolve issues in complex environments quickly.

Who Should Attend?

DevOps engineers, SREs, and platform teams responsible for monitoring and maintaining distributed systems.
Anyone looking to improve system reliability, troubleshoot performance issues, or enhance visibility in microservices environments.
Developers interested in implementing observability best practices from development to production.

Prerequisite Knowledge

Fundamental knowledge of containerized applications and Kubernetes (or similar orchestration).
Basic networking and system administration concepts.
Familiarity with log analysis and monitoring tools is helpful but not mandatory.
