The curriculum lacks instruction on implementing distributed tracing with Tempo or managing high-availability and fault tolerance. One signal from late 2025 notes a lack of information regarding high-availability, though the January 2026 update label does not prove this has been addressed.
One signal indicates that certain videos contain outdated query syntax, while another suggests the instructional pace may be too rapid for some learners. The query syntax concern was noted in early 2026; however, the update label does not guarantee a correction has been made.
Aligns with the target of DevOps and Developers through multi-platform coverage.
