+#### Discovery Backends
 Only the `network_discovery`, `device_discovery`, `worker` and `snmp_discovery` backends are currently supported. They do not require any special configuration.
 - [Device Discovery](./docs/backends/device_discovery.md)

 - [Worker](./docs/backends/worker.md)
 - [SNMP Discovery](./docs/backends/snmp_discovery.md)
 
+#### Observability Backends
+Observability backends focus on collecting and exporting rich telemetry from network traffic or probes so you can feed metrics into your monitoring stack.

 #### Common
 A special `common` subsection under `backends` defines configuration settings that are shared with all backends. Currently, it supports passing [diode](https://github.com/netboxlabs/diode) server settings and OpenTelemetry configuration to all backends.
