In the course of your day as an SRE, or DevOps, or SysAdmin, your knowledge and expertise are in high demand. You can’t do every task every person in your org needs from you without the help of comprehensive automation. Automation can be tricky. Some systems aren’t built with automation in mind, but assume that a human being will be there to keep an eye on things and fix errors on the fly, and we can’t be everywhere when there’s too much to do. Plus, you want to provide access to automation for the right folks and keep a record of when the tools were used.

Your company’s “digital transformation” will be driven by new application designs and methods, new technology stacks, and new processes. To master it, and delivering next generation services through it, massively complex sets of signals and data need to be leveraged, processed, and acted on. Developers need integrated data and insights through that noise, while being able to leverage their tools of choice. All of this must be managed, even in spite of massive rates of change and innovation.

In this video we will show how to set up the sharing of incidents from your BigPanda environments with ticketing, chat, notification and orchestration systems.

In this video we will discuss how to integrate change data with BigPanda to drive change-related root cause analysis. We call this feature Root-Cause Changes.

Solving your front-end performance problems can be hard, but identifying where you have performance problems in the first place can be even harder. In this live workshop held live at Vue.JS 2021, Abhijeet Prasad, software engineer at Sentry.io, dives deep into UX research, browser performance APIs, and developer tools to help show you the reasons why your Vue applications may be slow. He'll help answer questions like, "What does it mean to have a fast website?" and "How do I know if my performance problem is really a problem?". By walking through different example apps, you'll be able to learn how to use and leverage core web vitals, navigation-timing APIs, and distributed tracing to better understand your performance problems.

Sentry’s Evan Purkhiser and David Wang will walk through Sentry’s 2000+ file Typescript/React codebase at a special workshop that took place at React Advanced 2021. They’ll tell war stories of the good, the bad, and the ugly. Gaze in wonder at their modern usage of Typescript, react hooks, and styled components. Recoil in disgust at their legacy Reflux usage and perplexing Webpack configuration. Step away from the workshop with a working knowledge of techniques to keep a large-scale frontend codebase modern and maintainable.

Imagine a world where we would all enjoy updating the software we use. A world where software producers could be excited about releasing every day without fear. This is the future of 'liquid software', when updates, like water, run freely to all corners of the world. In this session, JFrog co-founder and chief data scientist Fred Simon will share his vision of achieving trusted continuous updates in the DevOps world, in which software is constant. He will show us why continuous software updates are critical for our modern world.

Have big ambitions for 2022? What about a formalized plan for getting your MSP to where you want it to go? For many MSPs, the past two years have been a heady mix of a) unprecedented challenges; and b) furious growth. What's separated the fastest growing shops from the rest?
