Assuring individual service performance is not enough when dealing with distributed systems running at scale. When digital services interact with other services in a distributed system, you often get unpredictable and chaotic outcomes related to network reliability, bandwidth, latency, security, admin requirements and more. This can have a disastrous effect for users and IT service administrators.
