Intro
Building observability for 99% developers
Hi, I'm Jean and I work on observability
First, there's the problem of sheer code volume...
Then there's the rise of microservices
Then there's the rise of APIs
Software development has changed
What the Software Development Life Cycle often looks like
Software practices that have gone out the window
The observability people have it right
It turns out there are a lot of developers outside of the ones we hear from
And they look different from who we're hearing from
The state of observability today
Our conversations about software development assume planned gardens
What embracing the evolving software rainforest means
Solution Part One: eBPF-based passive traffic listening
Solution Part Two: Automatic Traffic Modeling
