How is observability achieved in microservices?

Mid Microservices
Quick Answer Observability is achieved through: structured logging aggregated to a central system, metrics (Prometheus scrapes from /metrics endpoints), distributed tracing (Jaeger/Zipkin collects spans from all services), and error tracking (Sentry). Instrument your code with OpenTelemetry for vendor-neutral observability. Dashboards in Grafana tie all signals together.

Answer

Uses logging, metrics, and tracing for visibility.
Tools: ELK/Graylog, Prometheus/Grafana, Jaeger/Zipkin.
