O11y as Platform Contract - Instrumentation and CI/CD-Enforced SLOs

Learn how to implement observability as a platform contract through automated instrumentation and CI/CD-enforced Service Level Objectives (SLOs) in this 36-minute conference talk. Explore the current challenges with manual instrumentation and discover how platform contracts can revolutionize observability practices. Examine zero-code instrumentation architecture that supports multiple programming languages and cloud environments, eliminating the need for manual code changes. Understand how to establish and enforce observability contracts that automatically ensure compliance with monitoring standards. Discover advanced release automation strategies and deployment techniques that integrate observability requirements directly into your CI/CD pipeline. Master accelerated incident response methodologies that leverage automated observability data for faster problem resolution. Analyze real-world adoption patterns and industry examples demonstrating successful implementation of platform-based observability. Gain practical insights into creating a blueprint for transforming your organization's observability approach from manual, error-prone processes to automated, contract-driven systems that scale across teams and technologies.
