Monitoring and observability are often viewed as post-deployment tools focused on operations. But development done in isolation limits visibility to the system as a whole, and issues tend to manifest only in production.
In this talk I will show:
How to leverage Infrastructure as Code (Terraform) to manage AWS ECS/EC2 and Datadog across development and production environments
How introducing monitoring and observability earlier provides greater visibility for both developers and operations.
Strategies to segment development and production environments within ECS and Datadog
