The pressure on today’s development teams is real: innovate, release quickly, and then do it all again, only faster.

Any significant shift in an organization’s software engineering culture has the potential to feel tectonic, and observability (o11y for short)—or more specifically, Observability Driven Development —is no different.

The Programmer's Paradox

JUNE 1, 2013

Process is, after all, just a manifestation of organization. Since the intent of having a process is to apply organization to an effort, a badly thought out process defeats this goal.
