Keynote: ...What Does the Future Hold for Observability?
summary
Three concrete predictions: (1) tighter correlation between metrics, logs and traces with workflows that jump from a Prometheus latency graph to the relevant logs and Zipkin traces — examples include Loki uses Prometheus service discovery to attach labels to log streams, Kibana field formatters linking to Zipkin, and OpenTelemetry exemplars linking histogram buckets to trace IDs. (2) more signals and analysis via continuous profiling (conprof) that collects pprof snapshots over time to pinpoint memory leaks. (3) rise of index‑free log stores (Loki, oklog) for cheap, grep‑style troubleshooting.
