Understanding your applications and network in depth—how applications and infrastructure are performing, or not—is what observability offers to your business. Briefly defined, full-stack observability (FSO) is real-time observability across applications, software-defined compute, storage, services, network, etc. FSO offers in-depth visibility into the behavior, performance, and health of applications and infrastructure through metrics, events, logs, and traces (MELT)—providing visibility, insights and actions that help teams optimize customer experiences and deliver business outcomes.

The observability challenges

The digital transformation journey encompasses migration to a hybrid and multicloud ecosystem that is increasingly diverse, distributed, and complex. Both applications and operations must be more agile and responsive, and many organizations struggle with the skillsets and resources to manage this. In fact, 76% of 1200 interviewees in a recent survey regard skills as a critical factor in achieving their customer and employee experience goals.

Developers and IT are looking to partners that can provide outcomes—opting for a managed service model rather than simply deploying tools. Applications and operations are delivering vast amounts of data, so transforming that data into business value and operational context is a matter of urgency.
