Scenario

Your team has a wide variety of open source tooling that they use for monitoring.

You want to find a viable set of monitoring tools that are well supported and work together. You have found yourself here: https://landscape.cncf.io/

  1. What are some viable observability tools on that page?
  2. What considerations would you need to think about bringing them into your test environment?
