Monitoring and observability in the cloud ensure that systems run smoothly and problems are detected early. Monitoring tracks metrics like CPU usage or network traffic, while observability goes deeper, helping teams understand why issues happen by analyzing logs, traces, and metrics together. AWS supports this with services like CloudWatch (for monitoring), X-Ray (for tracing requests), and CloudTrail (for auditing activity). It’s like having both a dashboard and a detective one shows what’s happening, the other explains why.
Hope that helps.
