🛠️ Telemetry pipelines: The Achilles heel of observability?
🤝 Riverbed and Intel team up for enhanced digital experiences
🔍 Deep observability emerges as crucial security concept
📺 India's streaming services embrace observability for growth

THIS WEEKS SPOTLIGHT

Ever wondered why telemetry pipelines are such a big deal? Well, Forbes Tech Council's recent article sheds some light on this crucial aspect of observability. They call it the "Achilles heel" of observability, security, and digital twins. But why?

Telemetry pipelines are the unsung heroes that collect, process, and route data. They're essential for maintaining visibility across complex systems. However, they can also be a weak point if not appropriately managed. For observability practitioners and engineers, this means paying extra attention to how data flows through your systems.

The article emphasises the need for automation in managing these pipelines. It's not just about collecting data anymore; it's about ensuring it is reliable, secure, and actionable. This topic leads nicely into an architecture roundtable I'm setting up in November. If you're interested in diving deeper into system architecture for observability, keep an eye out for more details!
