I used to think that monitoring and alerting systems were just there to help you quickly and directly see the problems.But as the systems grew more complex, I found that the dashboards and alerts became overwhelming, and I often couldn’t figure out the root cause of the issue.
Recently, I started using AI to help with analysis, and I found that it can give me clues in a few seconds that I might have spent half a day searching for.
While it's much more efficient, sometimes I worry that, even though AI makes problem-solving easier, we might be relying too much on these tools and losing our own ability to judge and analyze.
- vjerancrnjak 1y agoYes, at any particular task you will be better than AI. We somehow forget that none of these systems are better than expert humans. If you rely on a tool, you might never develop the skills. Some skills are more worth than others. You won’t even have the experience to know which ones as well.
- globular-toast 1y agoI would argue that people have been relying on observability tools too much rather than designing systems that are understandable in the first place.
- germandiago 1y agoThis is 100% true and also my experience. However many companies will just care about how fast you deliver a solutiom, not about how much you are learning. They do not care anymore. The speed of the productive process is critical to them in many jobs.
