Monitoring Added After Deployment Is Not Observability. It Is Archaeology.

Observability is not a monitoring add-on. It is an architectural constraint. Systems built without observability baked in cannot be understood, cannot be governed, and cannot be improved. The OSAF model tells you exactly where your architecture is blind.

...Architecture Framework (OSAF) is a five-pillar model for embedding observability into architectural decisions — not as an afterthought, but as a first-class design constraint. Its purpose is direct: Make...
