Can we standardize on a #query language for #observability?
It's probably going to end up with good-old #SQL 😁

I shared my notes from last week's #KubeCon EU talk about the #CNCF 's working group that looks into observability query language standardization.

www.linkedin.com#query #observability #kubecon | Dotan Horovits 🇮🇱🎗Can we standardize on a #query language for #observability? It's probably going to end up with good-old SQL 😁 The Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) has a working group (WG) looking into observability query language standardization. They gave a fascinating talk last week at #KubeCon Europe. The group, led by Christopher Larsen of Netflix and Vijay Samuel of eBay, has done a comprehensive research among end users and DSL (domain specific languages) designers, to understand what's out there and what works. A very interesting conclusion is that relational approach with an SQL-like language is the best path. Why? because we should recognize that DevOps and SREs are no longer the main folks querying observability data. we need to cater for developers, data scientists, platform engineers and more. You see also the data analytics community moving back to SQL after the hype of NoSQL. Ultimately, SQL is a common language. And don't worry, the idea is to adapt it to time series, and some syntactic sugaring to make it more intuitive.
