Explore the integration of observability into the software development lifecycle in this 50-minute conference talk. Learn how to leverage system insights to inform planning, development, and debugging processes. Discover practical instrumentation techniques used by Honeycomb to gain visibility into day-to-day operations. Examine topics such as ownership, building and fixing, debugging, test cases, production testing, feature flags, and blast radius. Gain valuable insights on best practices, migrating from unstructured data, evolving tools, and visualizing system behavior through tracing. Understand how observability can transform the way software is built, released, and maintained from the very beginning of the development process.
