Observability in the AI‑Native Era with Hilliary Lipsig and Rob Rati

As the software world is transforming from cloud native to AI-native, observability must transform with it. But how exactly? How do we apply this in an existing enterprise with established processes and practices? In this PurePerformance episode, Andi Grabner hosts Hilliary Lipsig and Rob Rati to discuss their new book, Observability in the AI‑Native Era. The conversation explores how AIOps, automation, and modern observability must evolve as systems become cloud‑native, data‑heavy, and AI‑driven. We talk about why old alerting and SLO models no longer scale, how to balance AI with automation and human judgment, and why trust, security, and compliance matter more than ever when machines start making operational decisions. A must‑listen for SREs, platform engineers, and engineering leaders navigating the AI‑native future. Links we discussed Book on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Observability-...
