WIth unlimited money, most technology problems become easy to solve. But how do you design, build, and operate large scale, performant systems without breaking the bank? In this session, Chandru Subramanian (Director of Engineering, Runtime Efficiency at Datadog) and Neil Innes (Sr. Engineering Manager, DevOps at FanDuel) will discuss how they balance efficiency and effectiveness to save money while also meeting key goals.

Building large scale technical systems is hard, but building and scaling high performing technical organizations is even more difficult. In this session, Datadog Co-founder and CTO Alexis Lê-Quôc will sit down with Prashant Pandey, Head of Engineering at Asana, to discuss their approach to engineering leadership. They’ll share the hard-learned lessons from their long careers to help you cultivate better technical teams, covering topics from staying in tune with new technologies, enabling innovation, shipping modern ML and AI-based features, and scaling teams.

It’s been said that, “premature optimization is the root of all evil.” Contrarily, many engineers have also had to work with software riddled with so much technical debt and inefficiency that optimization is practically impossible and a complete rewrite is required. So when is the right time? In this panel session, we’ll talk with engineering leaders and architects about their approach to software optimization, when to do it, and how to design systems that scale and stay performant.

Tune in for a behind-the-scenes discussion on the advancement of Mattermost's AI tools and how they're being integrated into the team's current projects.

Learn how to use Playwright's "toPass" method to create auto-repeating and asynchronous assertions.

Cribl’s Ed Bailey will lead a great discussion with nth degree’s Paul Stout and Scott Gray about the evolution of the service model from time and materials to outcome-based services. We will share our own stories about our experiences with services and how to make them better. Join the live stream for a fun discussion and come armed with suggestions for how to make your next services engagement better.

Change Management (or Change Enablement, depending on which ITIL version you prefer) provides a formalized way to consistently handle the changes required to improve IT services, IT and business operations and outcomes, and ultimately customer experience. Having a Change Management process has certain advantages, such as: For that reason, the smart thing to do is to have a proper workflow in place to address the three types of changes established by ITIL 4: standard changes, emergency changes, and normal changes.

In this tutorial, we dive into the practical application of OpenTelemetry in an iOS project built with SwiftUI. We demonstrate how to set up the OpenTelemetry SDK, generate spans, and send them to a configured OpenTelemetry collector. Our example application displays a random sentence every few seconds. Each sentence generation process is instrumented with OpenTelemetry spans, which include an attribute representing the word count of the sentence.

Ever wanted to learn about frontend testing? You've come to the right place! In this video, we'll talk about the importance of testing in software development and introduce different types of tests.

In this tutorial, we'll explore the powerful monitoring capabilities offered by the Aiven platform. Monitoring metrics is crucial for ensuring the optimal performance and health of your databases. We'll dive into the various monitoring tools and features provided by Aiven, allowing you to track real-time metrics, analyze database performance, and gain valuable insights into your system. Whether it's monitoring CPU usage, query performance, or resource utilization, Aiven provides a comprehensive monitoring dashboard to help you stay informed and make data-driven decisions.
