Observability

Observability helps you understand the behavior, health, and performance of your applications. Platon provides a unified observability platform based on the Grafana stack, giving you access to logs, metrics, and traces - the three pillars of observability.

Why Observability Matters​

When something goes wrong in production, you need answers quickly:

  • What happened? → Check the logs
  • How is it performing? → Look at the metrics
  • Where did the request go? → Follow the traces

With all three signals in one place, you can quickly diagnose issues and understand your system's behavior.

Access Your Data​

All observability data is accessible through Grafana:
