Summary
In this chapter, we have explored user monitoring and the additional value gained with full end-to-end observability instrumentation. We looked at how Grafana provides this capability with Grafana Frontend Observability and the Faro Web SDK. We then looked at the Web Vitals metrics, which are important for interpreting visitor experience. We also looked at the built-in dashboards that help you navigate to your backend telemetry in Grafana, giving you the ability to fully diagnose problems. Finally, we looked at some best practices and custom configurations for Frontend Observability.
In the next chapter, we will learn about different aspects of application performance with Pyroscope and k6 from Grafana.
