Previous approaches to monitoring have relied primarily on infrastructure and service metrics, but modern approaches have embraced the idea of monitoring based on metrics that reflect the user experiences more accurately. This talk will elaborate on those differences and a new monitoring approach that actions on SLOs. We’ll cover the following: 1. Observability vs Monitoring 2. Metrics and Types of Metrics & Monitors 3. Why SLOs are a good monitoring strategy
