Summary
The maturity levels discussed in this chapter will help you to assess your current observability maturity level and also to start your observability journey with a fixed goal. Whether you choose the initial, defined, managed, quantitatively managed, or optimized level, we have added sufficient guardrails in this chapter for you. Remember, cultural change within the organization requires changes to the values and skills of the people. This chapter intended to emphasize the skills required by the organization, particularly the application team, for this cultural shift.
Along with maturity levels and people skills, this chapter also discussed the importance of measuring the progress of the observability journey, not only to track the progress but also to motivate and reiterate the observability values within the workforce.
