3. What is Fleet-Wide Observability?

4. The Observability Challenge at Scale

5. Metrics: Identifying What Matters

6. The Metrics That Matter in Kubernetes

7. What Makes a Metric Useful?

8. Things That Mislead and How to Avoid Them Overcollection Focus on high-signal, high-value metrics. Lack of Standardization Adopt a consistent monitoring framework. Ignoring Cardinality Be selective with label usage. Reactive Monitoring Prioritize proactive, SLO-driven metrics.

9. Alerts: From Noise to Actionable Signals

10. What Makes an Alert Actionable?

11. Journey to Alerting Effectiveness

12. Correlation: Connecting the Dots

13. Logs and Traces: The Context and The Journey

14. The Complete Fleet Observability Picture

15. Implementing Fleet wide Observability Leveraging the concepts of SLIs, SLOs, SLAs

16. Setting SLOs for key services

17. Optional section marker or title Benefits of SLO Driven Approach Proactive issue Management Scalable Reliability Management Consistency across services Error Budget Framework Alerting and Insights Enhanced User Experience Aligned goals across teams Key focus on customer impact Unified Metrics Reduced Downtime Prioritized Efforts Continuous Improvement Business-Driven Observability 17
