🚨 Managing 50+ microservices handling 10M+ requests/day with a 200ms response time target? Debugging distributed failures becomes a nightmare, and storage costs spiral out of control fast. This video reveals the EXACT observability strategy used in production .NET systems to achieve 99.9% uptime while keeping costs manageable.
What You'll Learn:
✅ The 3 Pillars of Observability (Metrics, Logs, Traces) – What to collect and WHY
✅ Smart Sampling Techniques – Head-based vs Tail-based sampling to reduce data volume by 90%
✅ Pre-computation & Aggregation – Cut storage costs while maintaining query performance
✅ Complete Tooling Stack – OpenTelemetry, Prometheus, Loki, Grafana, Azure Dashboards
✅ Actionable Insights Framework – Proactive detection, faster MTTR, continuous improvement
REAL-WORLD SCENARIO:
When checkout fails, which of 12+ services caused it? Learn how to detect it in <8 minutes instead of hours.
