Definition
Host Observability is an observability architecture concept for scoping telemetry, operational responsibilities, and analysis around host operating systems and host-resident workloads. It is maintained as an Observability Concept so tools can reference a stable vocabulary without treating the concept itself as a product [1].
Catalog use
This page is the canonical navigation target for the Host Observability catalog value. Product profiles may declare support for the concept, but that declaration does not by itself establish implementation depth, quality, or commercial availability.
