Core Idea
Basic observability is if the main pain is "the app is slow but we do not know why," start with docker compose logs. Add a larger tool only when one pain point stays unsolved, such as Loki for central logs or Prometheus for metrics. It usually makes the most sense alongside Unified environments, Easy reproducibility, Self-documenting setup.
