What would you call "Observability"? Please advise!

We currently have a community section called "observability". Most people I know have no idea what that's supposed to mean. Topics like Cisco "Thousand Eyes" fall into that category, because it lets you observe network traffic the same way you might do a traceroute, but it gives you tons more information to observe about every node between the start and end destination. 

I think a better term would be "network and system monitoring and troubleshooting", but that's obviously way too long a title for a section. Perhaps "network and system analysis" would be better, yes? Can you think of a short title that would cover this topic? 

I'm soliciting any and all suggestions on what title to use to replace "observability".  Can you help?  Thanks in advance!
