Don’t Panic – Blackholes and a Culture of Curiosity with Liz Fong-Jones

Principal Developer Advocate for SRE & Observability at Honeycomb, Liz Fong-Jones, talks about common questions she regularly gets from companies and clients looking to implement observability into their workflow and defines observability as a mechanism in order to improve the operability of systems. 

Liz says we shouldn’t talk about observability in a vacuum and that instead, it's a technique for analyzing production data that goes hand in hand with other production techniques, team philosophies, and development methodologies.
