Status: IN
OpenShift observability is a specific instance of the platform-wide multi-component enablement pattern: like service mesh, it requires explicit opt-in beyond the default platform layer (user workload monitoring, distributed tracing), layered component composition (AlertingRules → PrometheusRules → Alertmanager), and multi-operator coordination.
depth-2 observability enablement + depth-2 multi-component pattern reveal observability as an instance of a platform-wide architectural pattern
