That is, relying on metrics, logs, and traces to understand what software is doing and where it’s running into snags. In addition to tracing, observability also defines two other key concepts, metrics and logs. When software runs in a monolithic stack on on-site servers, observability is manageable enough.

One issue that often complicates this process is the "noisy neighbor" problem. To emit a run queue latency metric, we leveraged three eBPF hooks: sched_wakeup, sched_wakeup_new, and sched_switch. The sched_wakeup and sched_wakeup_new hooks are invoked when a process changes state from 'sleeping' to 'runnable.'
