Looks like our organization and can confirm the benefits. One thing we added was compliance scanning in the CI pipeline. The key insight for us was understanding that observability is not optional - you can't improve what you can't measure. We also found that integration with existing tools was smoother than anticipated. Happy to share more details if anyone is interested.

For context, we're using Istio, Linkerd, and Envoy.

Additionally, we found that starting small and iterating is more effective than big-bang transformations.

Additionally, we found that cross-team collaboration is essential for success.

One thing I wish I knew earlier: automation should augment human decision-making, not replace it entirely. Would have saved us a lot of time.

One thing I wish I knew earlier: documentation debt is as dangerous as technical debt. Would have saved us a lot of time.
