The goal of the project was to make normal cloud operations visible to employees. In the existing systems, developers were frequently asked to check whether the system was still running correctly. The task was, on the one hand, to make it visible that the system was running correctly and, on the other hand, to detect problems quickly enough that they were resolved before being reported as errors.
My contributions to the project::
- Evaluation of OpenTelemetry and OpenTracing
- Design and development of a tracing solution for asynchronous communication via business events
- Embedding domain-specific metrics in C#
- Creating dashboards in Grafana
- Configuring alerting and fine-tuning thresholds
