Deep Observability Insights at Any Scale with Consul

This Learn Lab focuses on leveraging Consul to gain deep observability insights into distributed applications at any scale. The session covers how to troubleshoot a demo application, "Hashi Cups", using Consul's observability features. It explores enabling and visualizing metrics and logs from both the data plane and control plane, integrating with common observability stacks like Grafana, Prometheus, and Loki. The talk highlights how Consul simplifies observability for platform teams managing clusters and services across organizations, whether self-managed, HCP-managed, or in hybrid environments. It demonstrates diagnosing traffic problems with the data plane and exploring control plane metrics and logs, ultimately showcasing how HashiCorp Consul (HCP) centralizes and streamlines visibility.
