Kubernetes SRE-Grade Observability
This learning path elevates your platform operations from basic monitoring to deep, contextual SRE-grade observability. You will learn the LGT stack (Loki, Grafana, Tempo) to seamlessly collect, correlate, and visualize metrics, logs, and distributed traces, enabling rapid root-cause analysis in complex microservice environments.
**Kubernetes SRE-Grade Observability** - Kubernetes Observability Architecture and Strategy (video course) - Implementing the Kubernetes Observability Stack (video course) - Kubernetes Metrics and Logging Stack Installation (i.e. hands-on lab) - Kubernetes Log Collectors and Sample Application Deployment (i.e. hands-on lab) - Kubernetes Prometheus Service Discovery Configuration (i.e. hands-on lab) - Kubernetes Distributed Tracing Backend Deployment with Tempo (i.e. hands-on lab) - Kubernetes Application Instrumentation and Trace Generation (i.e. hands-on lab) - Kubernetes Exemplar Linking and Full-Stack Dashboard Creation (i.e. hands-on lab)

What You'll Learn
- Deploy and integrate the complete LGT (Loki, Grafana, Tempo) observability stack on Kubernetes.
- Architect and implement cost-effective, index-less distributed tracing using Grafana Tempo.
- Master Exemplar Linking to correlate metrics spikes directly to their associated distributed traces, accelerating root-cause analysis.
- Configure log collectors (Promtail) for centralized log aggregation from microservices.
- Establish production-ready Prometheus service discovery using ServiceMonitor.
- Design and build full-stack Grafana dashboards that seamlessly connect metrics, logs, and traces.
- Strong familiarity with Kubernetes concepts (Pods, Deployments, Services). Proficiency with kubectl and YAML manifest management. Working knowledge of Helm for application deployment.
- Basic understanding of Prometheus and Grafana for metrics visualization.
