CloudWatch metrics can be a very useful source of information for a number of AWS services that dont produce telemetry as well as instrumented code. There are also a number of useful metrics for non-web-request based functions, like metrics on concurrent database requests. New to Honeycomb? Get your free account today!

Most successful organizations base their goals on improving some or all of the DORA or Accelerate metrics. DORA metrics are used by DevOps teams to measure their performance and find out whether they are “low performers” to “elite performers.” You want to maximize your deployment frequency while minimizing the other metrics.

Observability starts by collecting system telemetry data, such as logs, metrics, and traces. To gain a more complete picture, observability tools collect data from various components of the software system: logs, metrics, and traces (typically considered the “three pillars of observability” but don’t get us started on that rant ).
