Finding Bugs Before Your Users Do
Your service is in production. A user says it's slow. Another says data is stale. Your logs show nothing wrong. This talk walks through a real debugging session: metrics reveal the pattern, traces pinpoint the layer, structured logs expose the root cause. You'll see how to instrument a Go service with Prometheus, OpenTelemetry, and structured logging, without drowning in noise. Walk away knowing exactly what to record, what to ignore, and how to build alerts that actually help.
