The Librarian proactively improves observability data usability through normalization, sanitization, and optimization. Their primary motivation is to ensure that observability data is fit for human consumption.

​
Pain points

  • Cloud-native observability data is inherently not human-readable or understandable.
  • For a large organization, it can be difficult to stay on top of the changes fast-moving teams make to infrastructure, labeling, and taxonomy.
  • Lacking authority to enforce compliance. Teams might label data inconsistently, or not at all, which can make some data invisible and useless.
  • Typos in a single label value can accidentally remove data from its intended place.

​
Common tasks

  • Identifies best-practice metrics across libraries and components using the metrics catalog, and enables development teams to use them.
  • Reduces data clutter by removing unhelpful or duplicate observability data using drop rules and mapping rules.
  • Creates recording rules and rollup rules to produce more commonly used metrics from raw base metrics.
  • Works with the Accountant to identify data that’s no longer actionable or could be optimized to address budgetary concerns.
  • Organizes data-related artifacts, such as dashboards and alerting rules, into collections to align with user ownership and make them discoverable.
