Production observability checklist

Check whether a small production system has the monitoring basics that usually matter before the next incident.

Scope
Linux servers, Docker nodes, logs, alerts, access, and retention.
Audience
Founders, CTOs, senior developers, and small DevOps teams.
Output
A quick readiness score you can use before a beta onboarding call.

How to read the score

A low score does not mean your system is broken. It means the next outage may require more manual investigation than necessary.
