For many developers, unit tests and integration tests are often top of mind. Your team’s testing practice should assess the entire application, observe the larger story of how it operates when functioning correctly, and raise alarms when deviations are found. It can quickly consume your team’s engineering bandwidth.

He describes “some surprising theories about software engineering”: I discuss these theories in terms of two fundamentally different development styles, the "cathedral" model of most of the commercial world versus the "bazaar" model of the Linux world. However, the open source world figured out a better way to develop software.

Any significant shift in an organization’s software engineering culture has the potential to feel tectonic, and observability (o11y for short)—or more specifically, Observability Driven Development —is no different. This is why we highly encourage all teams to instrument their code to emit telemetry data. .
