Monitoring, Logging & Observability — DevOps Engineering Roadmap
Understanding what a running system is actually doing
Steps in Monitoring, Logging & Observability
- Monitoring Fundamentals & Metrics — advanced · The golden signals (latency, traffic, errors, saturation) and what to measure
- Prometheus & Grafana — advanced · Collecting time-series metrics and visualizing them on dashboards
- Centralized Logging (ELK/EFK Stack) — advanced · Aggregating and searching logs from many services in one place
- Distributed Tracing — advanced · Tracing a single request as it flows across multiple services
- Alerting & On-Call Practices — advanced · Turning metrics into actionable alerts and running a healthy on-call rotation
- SLIs, SLOs & Error Budgets — advanced · Defining measurable reliability targets and using error budgets to balance risk and velocity
