Debugging INP With Honeycomb for Frontend Observability

Sep 23, 2024 By Winston Hearn In Honeycomb
Interaction to Next Paint is the newest of Google’s Core Web Vitals. The three metrics that make up the CWVs are Google’s attempt at defining proxy metrics for measuring things they believe are critical to a good user experience on the web. The three metrics are: Debugging and fixing these metrics can be quite complicated. In this post, I’m going to walk through how you can use Honeycomb for Frontend Observability to debug INP, which was just promoted to a stable Core Web Vital in March.

A CoPE's Duty: Indexing on Prod

Sep 18, 2024 By Nick Travaglini In Honeycomb
Odds are that a software engineer today is really focused on one place: pre-prod. Short for “pre-production,” this is slang for an environment where software code operates in a prototype phase of its development lifecycle. Common sense would have one believe that this is a safe space, a workbench of sorts, where problems can be found and remediated.

The Layers, Not Pillars, of Observability

Sep 17, 2024 By Josh Biggley In Cribl
Remember the Tabs vs. Spaces arguments? It seems that observability has grown up enough that we are arguing over which signals are the “best” signals for observability. Often referred to as the Pillars of Observability, Metrics, Logs, and Traces (sometimes adding Events for MELT) each provide a unique perspective on a system. What happens when we change our perspective from finding the “best” telemetry format to finding the telemetry that aligns with the problems we need to solve?
