Episode description
No one wants to get Coinbase’s $65 million observability bill in the future. Sure, observability comes with a necessary cost. But that cost cannot exceed the concrete and perceived value on balance sheets and the minds of leaders.
Sofia Fosdick shares practical insights on curbing high observability costs. She’s a senior account executive at Honeycomb.io and has held similar titles at Turbunomic, Dynatrace, and Grafana. Like always, this is not a sponsored episode!
We tackled the cost issue by covering ideas like aligning cost with value, event-based systems, and dynamic sampling. You will not want to miss this conversation if your observability bill is starting to look dangerous.
