In this session, we delve into the pivotal role of observability in the realm of data platforms and data products. Observability, a concept transcending mere monitoring, offers a comprehensive view of data systems, enabling stakeholders to understand not only what is happening within their platforms but also why it's happening. This session will explore how observability practices can effectively monitor usage and activity, thus providing valuable insights for adoption strategies and governance models.

We will discuss practical approaches to implement observability in data platforms and products, focusing on techniques to capture and analyze metrics for a data platform - focusing on Power BI, Fabric and Databricks.

Attendees will gain an understanding of how observability can be a driving force in fostering user adoption and adherence to governance policies, as well as how to practically apply observability to their own platform. Observe early. Observe often.

The session is designed for data professionals, platform managers, and governance teams, aiming to harness the power of observability for making informed decisions, optimizing resource allocation, and ensuring compliance. Through real-world examples and interactive discussions, participants will leave with a comprehensive toolkit to elevate their data platform and product management strategies.
