In this conversation, James Governor of RedMonk talks to Adrian Phillips and Angela Kelly of Dynatrace about the growing importance of Observability, earlier and earlier in the software development lifecycle. Observability isn’t something you need to think after production deployment, but rather it need to be a consideration from the earliest phases of development, right through to production and onto the next iteration. This video discusses the factors shaping this change, as companies strive to ship software faster, safely, with ever tighter feedback loops.
James Governor highlights the complexity of modern deployments and thus the need for observability from the start. Adrian Phillips emphasizes that enterprise organizations today integrate observability into Day Zero so they can be proactive and offer a better developer experience. Angela Kelly notes that observability helps address tool sprawl, DevOps maturity, and scalability challenges. Customer examples included Dell improving developer productivity by focusing on developer experience. The conversation underscored the importance of standardization and platform engineering to enhance efficiency and productivity.
