This is the second blog post of the Telemetry blog-series. If you did not read the very first one check it out here . Telemetry is more than just HOST monitoring and Alerting. You can find lots of tools for basic telemetry but is hard to find a comprehensive solution to address all modern needs. Microservices are quite interesting for operations and business however they require better telemetry platforms and tools. Especially if you have Cloud-Native microservices and you are working with A/B Testing and doing lots of live experimentations instead of old business analyst predictions. Telemetry is hard and should scale as you architecture scales. I would say with the same pace. Otherwise, you will have trouble!

Kanban is a tool, it`s a culture and mindsets change tool, it`s a approach to change management. In order to make that happens we need to learn to see waste and see bottlenecks. There are several things you can do to archive that like retrospectives and peer-reviews but you also should be considering do as much metrics as you can. It could sound awkward talk about metrics on a Lean/Agile context because could easily sounding like non-sense but its not. So what kind of metric should i have, well that will depend of your system, when i say system i do not mean software but your people work system. Metrics does not need be atomic and microsecond precise you should see metrics as a thermometer rather than a raw number,
