Continuous observability

In Continuous Observability: Shedding Light on CI/CD Pipelines the one and only Dotan Horovits shares insights about continuous integration/continuous delivery (CI/CD) pipeline observability, based on an OpenObservability Talks episode with Oleg Nenashev.

ECS and Prometheus

Scraping Prometheus metrics from applications running in AWS ECS by Alex Tsybouk is a really great hands-on deep dive on the topic, also tackling the service discovery topic. Thanks for the write-up :)

Microservices migrations

Will Sewell, backend engineer at Monzo, shared How we run migrations across 2,800 microservices. This excellent end-user piece teaches us the importance of observability. Keep up the great work!

Profile-guided optimization

Another interesting contribution from Israel Ogbole, this time on Profile-Guided Optimization: A Hands-On Guide to Reducing Computational Wastage, showing you how to write efficient software, thanks to continuous profiling.
