You see, it turns out observability is pretty useless because it doesn’t do anything.
Yet... Somehow? It’s this thing that we’ve been able to grow into a multi billion dollar industry composed entirely out of “get a bunch of data, and then…”

Just want to thank all the folks nobody notices behind the scenes at #awsreinvent. It’s precisely because you’re so good at your jobs that nobody notices you.
Thanks. It was a great conference. You made it possible, and I see and appreciate your work. 🥰
