Observability isn’t just about watching for errors or monitoring for basic health signals. Instead, it goes deeper so you can understand the “why” behind the behaviors within your system. CI/CD observability plays a key part in that. It’s about gaining an in-depth view of the entire pipeline of your continuous integration and deployment systems — looking at every code check-in, every test, every build, and every deployment.

As engineers, we didn't want to make Signals only a replacement for what the existing incumbents do today. We've had our own gripes for years about the information architecture many old companies still force you to implement today. You should be able to send us any signal from any data source and create an alert based on some conditions. We're no strangers to building features that include conditional logic, but we upped the ante when it came to Signals.
