Overview

Monitor production models in real-time with comprehensive observability

The future of AI is agentic—autonomous systems that reason, plan, and coordinate across multiple agents to solve complex problems. Fiddler Observability is built for this future, providing comprehensive monitoring across traditional ML models, LLM applications, and emerging multi-agent systems.

The Challenge: Exponential Complexity

As AI evolves from static models to autonomous agents, observability complexity grows exponentially:

  • Multi-agent systems require 26x more monitoring resources than single-agent applications

  • Non-deterministic behavior breaks traditional APM frameworks designed for predictable code

  • Cascading failures across agent hierarchies create unprecedented debugging challenges

  • 90% of enterprises cite security, trust, and compliance as top concerns for agentic AI

Fiddler provides the unified observability platform that scales from simple models to complex agentic workflows—all powered by the same Trust Service foundation.

Agentic Observability

Fiddler's agentic observability provides hierarchical visibility into multi-agent systems, tracking the complete lifecycle of autonomous reasoning and coordination.

The Five Observable Stages

Every agent operates through five distinct stages that require specialized monitoring:

Stage-by-Stage Observability:

  1. Thought: Monitor how agents ingest data, retrieve context, and interpret information

  2. Action: Track planning processes, tool selection, and decision-making logic

  3. Execution: Observe task performance, API calls, and external integrations

  4. Reflection: Capture self-evaluation, learning signals, and adaptation decisions

  5. Alignment: Verify trust, safety, and policy enforcement at every step

Hierarchical Monitoring Architecture

Agentic systems operate across multiple levels of abstraction. Fiddler provides observability at each layer:

Hierarchical Root Cause Analysis:

  • Trace issues from user-facing symptoms down to individual tool calls

  • Understand cross-agent dependencies and coordination failures

  • Analyze patterns across sessions to identify systemic issues

  • Full context preservation for debugging non-deterministic behavior
