Honeycomb Learn is a webcast series designed to educate DevOps teams about what observability is and how to get started. Observability-driven development is the ability to ask any question about your production systems so you better understand and debug when incidents occur. Teams ship code confidently, learn continuously, and spend more time innovating.

In episode 20 of o11ycast, Charity and Shelby speak with Marco Rogers of Mode. They discuss the wall between dev and ops, application analysis, and wrangling vast amounts of data.

Distributed tracing is key to building and operating reliable services that make your customers happy.
Traces pinpoint where failures occur and what causes poor performance. With tracing and observability, you can visualize the entire life cycle of service requests and discover hidden latency, errors, and optimization opportunities monitoring can’t show you.

So why doesn’t everybody do it?

Setting up tracing is notoriously difficult, but it doesn’t have to be. Honeycomb Instrumentation Engineer Paul Osman has the easy-breezy steps for you to get the tracing you deserve.

In this episode, Paul will show Kelly:

*How distributed tracing helps you uncover hidden problems
*That you don’t need dedicated infrastructure to collect traces
*The simple way to set up tracing with either Beelines or OpenTelemetry

Raw & Real Ep 7: The Tracing You Deserve So You Can Observe
