Introducing Micrometer Application Metrics - Jon Schneider

Spring Boot has adopted Micrometer as its built-in metrics instrumentation library with out-of-the-box support for popular monitoring tools like Prometheus, Datadog, InfluxDB, New Relic, Elasticsearch MetricBeat, Graphite, and more! Micrometer is a metrics instrumentation facade that helps you instrument your code once and ship to one more monitoring systems while avoiding vendor lock-in. Think SLF4J, but for metrics. In this talk, we'll walk through practical exercises that demonstrate proper way to instrument your application code to yield actionable metrics insights and alerts.

I don't know if the the proper place to ask this, but I had this questions while watching this talk. "Should" we use application metrics to answer only performance related question? For business related questions "should" we use tools like google analytics?
