Implementing Telemetry and Observability in the Cloud
As we already know, Cloud Native applications typically consist of multiple small services that communicate over the network. Cloud Native apps are frequently updated and replaced with newer versions and in this chapter, we emphasize the need to monitor and optimize them based on observations for best performance with cost in mind.

- Telemetry and observability
- Prometheus for monitoring and alerting
- FinOps and cost management
