Abstract
Healthcare systems are complex applications with multiple interconnected components and an architectural hierarchy with high levels of data sensitivity. With the evolution of technology in the last decade, it has become increasingly difficult to trace performance metrics to analyze application issues. Traditional monitoring no longer provides a holistic view and often results in longer issue diagnostic times, causing effort and revenue impact for the companies. In this article, performance observability, especially for healthcare systems, is presented. The article starts by elaborating how the healthcare system is different from any other non-healthcare systems and further deep-diving into performance observability and monitoring concepts, along with describing the best setup for performance observability for healthcare systems and current observability tool providers.
