There are many ways to deploy your microservices, each offering different levels of control, simplicity, and scalability. One approach is using Elastic Beanstalk , a fully managed service that simplifies deployment, scaling, and management. Another option is to deploy manually, giving you full control over the infrastructure but requiring more setup and maintenance.

As per the saying If you dont measure it, you cant manage it by Deming , observability and monitoring is our way to measure our services. Kubernetes is pretty revolutionary when it comes to the way it handles deployments and scales. But the way containers are continuously created and destroyed can sometimes present challenges with monitoring. This is where observability comes into play, offering critical insights into how your system is performing and why issues occur.
