Observability for Spring Boot and Oracle Database applications

In today's fast-paced digital landscape, software applications are becoming increasingly complex and critical to business operations. As such, it's essential to ensure that these applications are not only reliable but also provide insights into their performance, behavior, and reliability. This is where observability comes in – a crucial aspect of?software development that enables developers, operators, and stakeholders to monitor, understand, and act upon the performance of their applications.

Spring Boot is a powerful framework to create data intensive microservices and with new Oracle Database Free 23ai, developers can quickly try out the features they want to build to meet the requirements of varied domains and industries.

The sample at https://github.com/lake-of-dreams/spring-oracledb-observability provides a ready to use set of configuration and example to help

• Build a Spring Boot application using Oracle Database as backend
• Setup an observability stack based on Prometheus , OpenTelemetry, Jaeger and Loki
• Correlate and visualize observability events using Grafana
