Without business context it’s impossible to derive meaningful actionable insights in order to improve customer experience or fuel business growth. Rising cost complexities, interconnected systems and mounting regulatory pressures makes it imperative to know not just what went wrong, but why it went wrong in real-time. Simply looking at IT observability provides limited value to business operations teams.
