There Is Only One Key Difference Between Observability 1.0 and 2.0

Read Original

This technical article clarifies the fundamental difference between Observability 1.0 and 2.0. It argues that Observability 1.0 is defined by scattered 'three pillars' (metrics, logs, traces) across many tools, forcing decisions at write time. Observability 2.0 is defined by a single source of truth: arbitrarily-wide structured log events, from which all other data types like metrics and traces can be derived.
