Conventional manufacturing consisted of either job shops capable of variety but high cost, or transfer lines for high volume but limited to 1-2 parts. A flexible manufacturing system (FMS) integrates multiple machines via automated material handling controlled by a computer to manufacture various products. A manufacturing cell typically consists of 2-3 CNC machines plus a handling system. An FMS provides flexibility in machine functions, production, product mixing, routing, volumes and expansion through computer control of workstations, material storage and movement, and production monitoring. Reasons to implement FMS include increased efficiency and responsiveness compared to conventional systems. Careful planning is required to implement FMS successfully.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdf
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:
