Observability vs. Monitoring: Why Your Green Dashboard Is Lying to You

· CoolVDS Team

It's 3 AM. Your dashboard shows all systems green, but customers are screaming about 502 errors. This is the monitoring gap. We dissect the critical shift from 'checking health' to 'understanding behavior' in a post-Schrems II world.
