Infobip Shift EU 2024: Platform Engineers Arise - Adding Observability to Your Platform Toolbox

Great observability begins with great instrumentation! We know it's hard to decide where to start your observability journey, so we've come up with a perfect introduction to observability in this workshop collection. Platform engineers are getting hands-on with the best Cloud Native Computing Foundation open source observability projects available. Attendees can pick their own cloud native learning path (https://o11y-workshops.gitlab.io) in this session from the following workshops:
OpenTelemetry (traces) - https://o11y-workshops.gitlab.io/workshop-opentelemetry
Prometheus (metrics) - https://o11y-workshops.gitlab.io/workshop-prometheus
Fluent Bit (pipelines) - https://o11y-workshops.gitlab.io/workshop-fluentbit
Perses (visualization) - https://o11y-workshops.gitlab.io/workshop-perses
Key takeaways -
Imagine a team of engineers starting a project with observability as a top priority, dedicating time, and resources to creating a comprehensive telemetry strategy from the outset... Great engineering teams will prioritize observability, just as they would prioritize testing, continuous integration, and continuous deployment, from the outset.
This workshop is never the same twice as you the attendees choose from a list of CNCF cloud native observability technologies and get hands-on learning about metrics, data pipelines, traces, and data visualization. Each workshop is engaging and requires attendees to solve common challenges as they learn about the open source solutions that interest them the most! The workshop is self-paced and available online, so attendees can continue to explore after the event.
