Technical Advisory Group for Observability under the umbrella of CNCF.
TAG Observability focuses on topics pertaining to the observation of cloud native workloads. Additionally, it produces supporting material and best practices for end-users and provides guidance and coordination for CNCF projects working within the TAG’s scope.
Excerpts from the Observability Charter Document:
- Foster, review and grow the ecosystem of observability related projects, users, and maintainers in open source, cloud-native technology.
- Identify and report gaps in the CNCF's project portfolio on topics of observability to the TOC and the wider CNCF community.
- Collect, curate, champion, and disseminate patterns and current best practices related to the observation of cloud-native systems that are effective and actionable.
- Educate and inform users with unbiased, accurate, and pertinent information. Educate and help other CNCF projects regarding observability techniques and best current practices available within the CNCF.
- Provide and maintain a vendor-neutral venue for relevant thought validation, discussion, and project feedback.
- Provide a ladder for community members to become involved with the technical oversight of projects within the SIG's scope in an open, transparent, and inclusive way.
