Being on the leading-edge of software development requires quality observability insights, and the company wanted a new partner that could support their engineering charter for continual improvement and growth. Amperity’s observability depended on a suite of tools for logs, metrics, and dashboards. The challenge?

Open Source and a Culture of Sharing. Chander Damodaran of Brillio noted that, “the culture of sharing solutions, frameworks, and industry-leading practices” has been a crucial part of Brillio’s journey. Similarly, Tim Hope said that open source is critical in building an engineering culture and developing systems.

We often see development teams having difficulty striking the right balance between different kinds of monitoring, focusing on observability primarily in terms of technical metrics like error rate. Technical metrics are helpful but might not tell the whole story. Quadrant 3: Business Metrics. Conclusion.

This new paradigm places a premium on metrics like latency and error rates, equipping engineers to gauge whether their software is meeting market expectations. It’s about seeing beyond the code and into the lived experience of the user, making engineering as much about human interaction as it is about technology.

Many healthy engineering cultures avoid relying heavily on user acceptance testing due to its unreliability, cost, and time consumption. The implementation details and performance metrics that non-functional testing targets are often secondary matters of refinement. Software solutions must solve the problems they target.
