""" The fact that observability is often sold as a tool to infrastructure teams is throwing out the entire point of the idea by burying it in the implementation. Nobody buys PowerBI because they need to invest in “super fancy ass spreadsheet generation capabilities” or some shit like that, and likewise you shouldn’t be buying an observability vendor because you need a way to store system diagnostic information, it literally doesn’t make sense–observability is not a data problem. """

I really liked this justification for involving people into the definition, but one could also argue that people are what powers "observability" rather than "observability" consisting of people's ability to use it for its intended goal

almost all definitions of processes/platforms/tools could be redefined to involve the peoples ability to use it for its intended goal i.e chaos testing is not a platform but the ability of people to pose meaningful hypothesis of real life chaos and test that chaos on the system. probably they should?
