Welcome to Observability Unplugged — the podcast where data meets empathy. Hosted by two AI-generated personalities, Dean and Erica, this show brings you real-world stories and insights from the world of observability, with a special focus on Dynatrace.
Each episode unpacks the top issues teams face when implementing Dynatrace — from OneAgent deployment hiccups to alert fatigue and misconfigured tagging strategies. But more importantly, Dean and Erica break down why these issues occur and offer best practices backed by hands-on research and publicly available documentation.
This podcast isn’t about polished vendor pitches. It’s about being real with the problems engineers face — and the creative, practical solutions that make observability actually work. Whether you're in SRE, DevOps, AppDev, or IT leadership, you'll find thoughtful conversations designed to make your day-to-day easier and your stack more observable.
Because observability isn't just about systems — it's about the humans who keep them running.

When Dynatrace met OpenTelemetry inside the same container, things got messy.
In this episode, we break down the real story behind the dual instrumentation issue at Infosys — how two monitoring layers collided, why builds failed, and what we learned about balancing visibility with performance.
We also explore how unified telemetry pipelines and smarter observability design can prevent these problems for any engineering team running large Kubernetes environments.
