#17 Observability 101: Why Your IT Tools Are Failing You - And What to Do About It

from Thriving in Ambiguity · host Steve Mancini

Welcome to Episode #17 of Thriving in Ambiguity — the podcast where we cut through the chaos of modern tech without losing our minds. This week, we're talking observability — not the buzzword version, but the real deal. From my days in the war room to what I've learned working with state agencies, Fortune 100s, and SaaS-heavy stacks, I'm breaking down: Why traditional monitoring is broken What Dynatrace does differently (and why it matters) Real customer stories — from the State of Michigan to Air France-KLM How developers, security, and ops can finally speak the same language Why Splunk users are making the switch And how to stop drowning in tools and start delivering business value   If you've ever said, "It's not our code" — this one's for you. 👀 Like what you hear? Subscribe, leave a review, and share it with someone still stuck in a war room. 📩 Want a live walkthrough or to see how Dynatrace could simplify your stack? Shoot me a message.  [email protected]
