Why observability needs to be treated as critical infrastructure

Critical infrastructure in our day-to-day lives are the things we rely on, but rarely think about.

From water, to power, to the internet, we only notice them when they’re disrupted. In your dev environment, you also have a set of critical infrastructure: your cloud provider, your code repositories and IDE, maybe even Slack. However, if you’re not considering your observability tooling as part of that critical infrastructure stack, you’re exposing yourself to significant risks. In this session, we will discuss:

  • What does critical infrastructure mean in a development environment?
  • Why observability is critical infrastructure and what happens when it goes away?
  • How you can protect yourself and mitigate observability risks
