1. Observability at Google JBD, Google (@rakyll)
2. @rakyll History Long history of distributed systems 10ks of different services built by 100s of teams Many backends/analysis tools invented here ™
3. @rakyll
4. @rakyll 100% availability (is a lie)
5. “ @rakyll A service is available if users cannot tell there is an outage.
6. “ @rakyll Google Load Balancers are available if users cannot tell there is an outage.
7. @rakyll Principled way of saying what level of downtime is acceptable. • Error rate • Latency expectations SLOs
8. @rakyll An observable system tells more than its availability.
9. @rakyll Context, status, expectations, debuggability
10. @rakyll How? Observe by collecting signals Export them to analysis tools Correlate and analyze to find root cause

15. @rakyll This is hard Must have integrations for web, RPC, and storage clients Must support all languages Must be context aware (e.g. canary vs prod) Must support many analysis tools Developers need to add custom instrumentation
16. @rakyll This is too hard!

23. @rakyll Z-Pages • Allows processes report their own dashboards. • Z-Pages have no sampling.
24. @rakyll Try! import “go.opencensus.io/plugin/ocgrpc” s := grpc.NewServer(grpc.StatsHandler(&ocgrpc.ServerHandler{})) if err := s.Serve(lis); err != nil { log.Fatalf("Failed to serve: %v", err) }
25. @rakyll import ( “go.opencensus.io/stats/view” “go.opencensus.io/trace” “contrib.go.opencensus.io/exporter/stackdriver” ) exporter, err := stackdriver.NewExporter(stackdriver.Options{ … }) if err != nil { log.Fatal(err) } view.RegisterExporter(exporter) trace.RegisterExporter(exporter)

28. @rakyll Roadmap Stable libraries in 8+ languages Exporter daemon Cluster-wide Z-Pages Smart sampling Exemplars Framework, database, MQ integrations
