Quick Answer Observability and resilience best practices: instrument with OpenTelemetry from day one, not as an afterthought. Set SLOs and measure SLIs. Alert on SLO burn rate, not just raw thresholds. Run chaos experiments to validate resilience. Use structured logs with trace IDs. Review post-mortems to improve. Resilience and observability are investments that pay off when production breaks.
