OVERVIEW

About Cloud Monitoring and DevOps Capstone

Operating a service requires more than deploying it. Teams need enough visibility to recognize problems, understand impact, and recover safely while protecting data and access.

LEARNING OUTCOMES

What You Will Learn

  • Distinguish logs, metrics, and alerts.
  • Choose an actionable alert and escalation path.
  • Document a backup and recovery exercise with operational risks.
TOPIC GUIDE

Learn Cloud Monitoring and DevOps Capstone

Use logs and metrics for different questions

Logs record events and context; metrics summarize values over time. Alerts should identify an actionable condition, an owner, and the next step—not merely announce that a number changed.

Design useful alerts

Choose thresholds that relate to user impact, check for noisy or duplicate notifications, and define who responds. Review a simulated incident timeline to understand when the signal appeared and what information was missing.

Prepare for recovery

Document backup scope, retention, access, and a restoration test. A backup that has not been restored in a practice exercise may not meet recovery needs. Keep secrets and sensitive logs protected.

Bring the workflow together

A capstone can include a sample application, version-controlled configuration, automated checks, a deployment plan, monitoring, and a rollback or recovery runbook. Present assumptions and limitations clearly.

PRACTICAL EXAMPLE

Example / Code

Example 
Capstone review
- What changed and who approved it?
- Did automated tests pass?
- Is the deployed version identifiable?
- Which user-impact signal should alert?
- Who responds and where is the runbook?
- How is recovery tested?
TRY IT YOURSELF

Practice Task

Apply what you learned with a practical activity.

Create a delivery and operations plan for a sample web service. Include one pipeline, a deployment approval, two useful signals, one actionable alert, least-privilege access, a backup test, and a rollback or recovery decision.
