Imagine, it's Friday afternoon.
You're eager to enjoy your weekend when an Ops engineer forwards you a blocking issue with an HTTP 500 error.

Indeed, he couldn't identify the root cause due to a lack of contextual information.
After a few hours, you finally manage to identify it by reproducing and debugging it on your computer.

If you're accustomed to facing such issues, it surely means that you may have overlooked developing one of the most important features of your application: Observability!
During this workshop, we will implement logging best practices and cover the whole observability stack from libraries to storage backend and visualization tools based on the Grafana Stack (Tempo, Prometheus, Loki, Grafana).
We will therefore get an overview of how Devs can make Ops their best friends by making our Java application more reliable and production-ready!
