Kubernetes observability isn’t just about catching metrics or tailing logs. It’s about stitching together metrics, logs, and traces to see what’s actually happening—across services, over time, and through the chaos.
Thing is, Kubernetes doesn’t come with this built in. So teams hack together toolchains—Prometheus, ELK, Kubecost, take your pick—and battle the usual mess: noisy data, short-lived containers, silos everywhere. Insight doesn’t show up. You have to extract it.
