To validate your observability sovereignty, complete the following steps:
- Deploy Independent Telemetry: Install PMM within your managed environment (cloud or on-prem) to begin collecting baseline metrics.
- Verify Data Residency: Configure your telemetry and logging agents to ensure that no metadata or audit logs are being leaked to the cloud provider’s internal monitoring systems.
- Simulate Visibility Loss: Disable access to the cloud provider’s management console. Verify that your team can still troubleshoot performance issues and access audit logs using PMM and your SIEM.
- Audit Evidence Automation: Create an automated report that pulls data from your independent observability pipeline to satisfy compliance requirements without manual vendor exports.
