How to build observability into a serverless application
Serverless introduces a number of challenges to existing tools for observability, so you need to adapt your practices to fit this new paradigm. Yan Cui explains how to build observability into a serverless application, demonstrating how to implement log aggregation, distributed tracing, and correlation IDs through both synchronous and asynchronous events.

Serverless introduces a number of challenges to existing tools for observability: there’s nowhere to install monitoring agents or daemons, no background processing, higher concurrency to monitoring systems, and lots more asynchronous invocations. As a result, you need to adapt your practices to fit this new paradigm. Yan Cui explains how to build observability into a serverless application, demonstrating how to implement log aggregation, distributed tracing, and correlation IDs through both synchronous and asynchronous events.
