At one of the world’s largest insurance groups, a five-person cloud team proved that with open standards like OpenTelemetry and a unified, scalable observability stack like Grafana Cloud, modernization doesn’t have to mean complexity.
In this talk, AXA Germany Product Owner Sebastian Miottke will discuss how the team aligned early on label conventions and kept costs down with smart automation and efficient tooling so that developers could easily configure and customize setting and alert rules. These decisions enabled fast, low-effort adoption – and powered dashboards, alerts, and full transparency from day one.
