# Ontology and AIP observability

Ontology and AIP observability refers to a set of capabilities in [Workflow Lineage](../../workflow-lineage/overview/index.md) that provide visibility into your AIP and Ontology workflow executions, including [metrics](../../aip-observability/metrics/index.md), [execution history](../../aip-observability/run-history/index.md), [distributed tracing](../../aip-observability/trace-view/index.md), [logging](../../aip-observability/service-logs-and-debugging/index.md), and [log search](../../aip-observability/log-search/index.md). These capabilities are part of Palantir's [platform-wide observability](../../observability/overview/index.md) strategy.

To learn more about available tools and how to get started, see the [Ontology and AIP observability section](../../aip-observability/overview/index.md).
