Operations | Monitoring | ITSM | DevOps | Cloud

Asia continues to draw global companies looking to scale their remote workforce, thanks to its deep talent pools and cost advantages. Yet hiring across the region brings layered compliance demands that vary from country to country. The employer of record (EOR) model has emerged as a practical fix, helping firms hire legally and quickly without the cost of building local entities from scratch.

Many people wonder what the difference is between monitoring vs. observability. While monitoring is simply watching a system, observability means truly understanding a system's state. DevOps teams leverage observability to debug their applications, or troubleshoot the root cause of system issues. Peak visibility is achieved by analyzing the three pillars of observability: Logs, metrics and traces. Depending on who you ask, some use MELT as the four pillars of essential telemetry data (or metrics, events, logs and traces) but we'll stick with the three core pillars for this piece.
