What we'll discuss
How has the transition from an IS based on monolithic applications to an architecture of microservices in the Cloud changed the principles and tools of monitoring?

Wilfried Villisek Faucounau, Principal Engineer Devops at Société Générale and Dimitris Finas, Senior Technical Advisor at Lightstep will answer this question through the evolution of monitoring and by presenting an example of implementation of observability in e-commerce via a demonstration of the Lightstep solution based on Open Telemetry.

They will cover in particular:
  • The evolution of monitoring principles and the rise in maturity of the associated operational management.
  • Why we now talk about observability and what it implies as a change in the way applications are designed and operated.
All of this will be illustrated through what integration solutions such as Open Telemetry and Lightstep can bring. These solutions will be put in situation through a real example of integration in an online retail solution.

The final objective will be for you to project your own needs through these demonstrations and to discuss the approach of an increase in power of your monitoring on your architectures, whether they are Cloud-native or not.
