Monitoring tells you the server is dead. Observability tells you why the database query failed only for users in Oslo. We dissect the architecture of 'unknown unknowns' using OpenTelemetry, Prometheus, and high-IOPS infrastructure.
Monitoring tells you the server is up. Observability tells you why the API latency spikes every Tuesday at 2 AM. We dissect the PLG stack, OpenTelemetry, and why high-cardinality data demands NVMe storage.
Monitoring tells you the server is online; Observability tells you why the database query fails only for users in Bergen. We dissect the transition from simple metrics to full-stack tracing, referencing GDPR compliance and hardware isolation.
Monitoring tells you the server is dead; Observability tells you why the database query timed out only for users in Trondheim. We dissect the transition from simple metrics to full traces using OpenTelemetry, Prometheus, and the high-IOPS requirements of modern logging stacks.
Monitoring tells you the server is dead. Observability tells you why the database lock happened. A senior architect's guide to moving beyond 'uptime' metrics using OpenTelemetry, Prometheus, and reliable Nordic infrastructure.
Monitoring tells you the site is down. Observability tells you why. A deep dive into modern instrumentation, OpenTelemetry, and why high-performance hosting is non-negotiable for the heavy I/O of tracing stacks.
Monitoring tells you the server is online. Observability tells you why the checkout API is failing for users in Bergen. In this deep dive, we move beyond simple uptime checks to implement full-stack observability using OpenTelemetry, Prometheus, and Grafana on high-performance infrastructure.
It is 2023. If you are still relying solely on uptime checks and CPU graphs, you are flying blind. We dissect the transition to full observability using OpenTelemetry, Prometheus, and the specific infrastructure requirements needed to handle high-cardinality data in a GDPR-compliant Norwegian environment.
Monitoring tells you the server is up. Observability tells you why the checkout is slow for users in Bergen. A deep dive into modern stacks (Prometheus, OpenTelemetry) and why data sovereignty in Norway matters more than ever.
Monitoring tells you the server is down. Observability tells you why the database locked up. In this deep dive, we explore the distinct architectural differences, implement a 2022-ready OpenTelemetry stack, and discuss why high-cardinality data demands the NVMe performance found in CoolVDS instances.
Monitoring tells you the server is up; Observability tells you why the checkout failed for users in Bergen. A deep dive into the O11y stack (Prometheus, Loki, OpenTelemetry) for Norwegian DevOps teams facing GDPR constraints.
Monitoring tells you the server is dead. Observability tells you why the database query timed out only for users in Bergen. A deep dive into the three pillars—metrics, logs, traces—and how to host them in a GDPR-compliant Norwegian infrastructure.
Your dashboard says 200 OK, but users are seeing timeouts. We dissect the critical difference between monitoring and observability, focusing on the "unknown unknowns," with practical config examples for Prometheus, Loki, and OpenTelemetry on Norwegian infrastructure.
It's 3 AM. Your CPU usage is normal, but the site is down. Monitoring tells you the system is broken; Observability tells you why. Here is the technical breakdown of implementing OpenTelemetry and Prometheus on high-performance Norwegian infrastructure.
Monitoring tells you the server is up. Observability tells you why the checkout is slow. We dissect the technical differences, implementation strategies using OpenTelemetry (circa 2022), and why infrastructure choice dictates data fidelity.
Monitoring tells you the server is up. Observability tells you why the checkout failed for iOS users in Bergen. We dive into the distinction using Prometheus, Loki, and OpenTelemetry, and why hosting your own stack in Norway is the only safe bet post-Schrems II.
Microservices are a black box without proper tracing. We explore how to deploy the OpenTelemetry Collector (Beta) on CoolVDS to visualize bottlenecks without destroying application performance.
