> For everything ops and devops it looks like there are like islands of knowledge which are not shared at all Very strongly disagree, if anything it's the opposite. Many people read the knowledge shared by others and jump to thinking it's suitable for them as well. Microservices and Kubernetes got adopted by everyone and their grandpa because big tech uses them, without any consideration if its suitable or not for each org. > At least when coming with a newbie point of view. Like for example with telemetry: people who worked at Google or Meta all rave about the mythical tools they got to use in-house and how they cannot find anything equivalent outside... and yes when you check what is available "outside" it looks less powerful and all those solutions feel like the same. So you got the FAANG islands of tools and way to do things, the big box commercial offering and their armies of consultants and then the OpenSource and Freemium way of doing telemetry. The latter two are converging with OpenTelemetry and Prometheus and related projects. Both ways are well documented, and there are a number of projects and vendors providing alternatives and various options. People can pick what works best for them (and it could very well be open source but hosted for you, cf. Grafana Cloud). I'm not sure how that's related to "islands of knowledge"... observability in general is one of the most widely discussed topics in the space.
