Key benefits

  • Gain a thorough understanding of observability principles along with different AWS service offerings and best practices
  • Ensure customer satisfaction by monitoring user experience and fixing bottlenecks quickly
  • Learn from experts to get the best possible insights into AWS’ observability solutions

Description

As modern application architecture grows increasingly complex, identifying potential points of failure and measuring end user satisfaction, in addition to monitoring application availability, is key. This book helps you explore AWS observability tools that provide end-to-end visibility, enabling quick identification of performance bottlenecks in distributed applications. You’ll gain a holistic view of monitoring and observability on AWS, starting from observability basics using Amazon CloudWatch and AWS X-Ray to advanced ML-powered tools such as AWS DevOps Guru. As you progress, you'll learn about AWS-managed open source services such as AWS Distro for OpenTelemetry (ADOT) and AWS managed Prometheus, Grafana, and the ELK Stack. You’ll implement observability in EC2 instances, containers, Kubernetes, and serverless apps and grasp UX monitoring. With a fair mix of concepts and examples, this book helps you gain hands-on experience in implementing end-to-end AWS observability in your applications and navigating and troubleshooting performance issues with the help of use cases. You'll also learn best practices and guidelines, such as how observability relates to the Well-Architected Framework. By the end of this AWS book, you’ll be able to implement observability and monitoring in your apps using AWS’ native and managed open source tools in real-world scenarios.

Who is this book for?

This book is for SREs, DevOps and cloud engineers, and developers who are looking to achieve their observability targets using AWS native services and open source managed services on AWS. It will assist solution architects in achieving operational excellence by implementing cloud observability solutions for their workloads. Basic understanding of AWS cloud fundamentals and different AWS cloud services used to run applications such as EC2, container solutions such as ECS, and EKS will be helpful when using this book.

This is a must read for all those AWS architects to understand and build a hands on experience on AWS observability stack. I loved the way the book is written, it is very simple yet covers some of the most complicated topics. The best part is. It is very hands on. Great work by the authors. I strongly recommend this book.AB Vijay Kumar, IBM Fellow.

Can I download the code files for Early Access titles? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

We try to ensure that all books in Early Access have code available to use, download, and fork on GitHub. This helps us be more agile in the development of the book, and helps keep the often changing code base of new versions and new technologies as up to date as possible. Unfortunately, however, there will be rare cases when it is not possible for us to have downloadable code samples available until publication.

When we publish the book, the code files will also be available to download from the Packt website.

How accurate is the publication date? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

The publication date is as accurate as we can be at any point in the project. Unfortunately, delays can happen. Often those delays are out of our control, such as changes to the technology code base or delays in the tech release. We do our best to give you an accurate estimate of the publication date at any given time, and as more chapters are delivered, the more accurate the delivery date will become.

We'll let you know every time there has been an update to a course that you've bought in Early Access. You'll get an email to let you know there has been a new chapter, or a change to a previous chapter.
