Observability vs. monitoring: What’s the difference?

Dynatrace

For example, when monitoring a database, you’ll want to know about any latency when writing data to a disk or average query response time. Examples include a spike in memory utilization, a decrease in cache hit ratio, or an increase in CPU utilization. The post Observability vs. monitoring: What’s the difference?

USENIX SREcon APAC 2022: Computing Performance: What's on the Horizon

Brendan Gregg

My personal opinion is that I don't see a widespread need for more capacity given horizontal scaling and servers that can already exceed 1 Tbyte of DRAM; bandwidth is also helpful, but I'd be concerned about the increased latency for adding a hop to more memory. Ford, et al., “TCP

Percentiles don’t work: Analyzing the distribution of response times for web services

Adrian Cockcroft

The mean and percentile measurements hide this structure, but the rest of this post will show how the structure can be measured and analyzed so that you can figure out a useful model of your system, understand what is driving the long tail of latencies and come up with better SLAs and measures of capacity. For this demo on an old MacBook (2.7
