Sentry for Spring Boot & Logback
While Spring Boot provides everything developers need build applications, it leaves operational aspects of debugging issues to the developers and third-party services.

Sentry has recently launched a major update to the Java SDK. In the post, we’ll focus on Spring Boot and Logback.
Breaking Serverless Things on Purpose: Chaos Engineering in Stateless Environments - Emrah Samdan
Serverless enabled us to build highly distributed applications that led to more granular functions and ultimate scalability. However, it also brought the risk of failure from a single microservice to many serverless functions and resources. You might be able to predict and design for certain troublesome issues but there are many, many more that you probably will not be able to easily plan for. How do you build a resilient system under these highly distributed circumstances? The answer is Chaos Engineering: Breaking things on purpose just to experience how the whole system will react.
Chaos Engineering: The Path to Reliability - Kolton Andrus
We’re all here for the same purpose: to ensure the systems we build operate reliably. This is a difficult task, one that must balance people, process and technology during difficult conditions. We operate with incomplete information, assessing risks and dealing with emerging issues. We’ve found Chaos Engineering to be a valuable tool in addressing these concerns. Learn from real world examples what works, what doesn’t, and what the future holds.
Identifying Hidden Dependencies - Liz Fong Jones
You don't need to write automation or deploy on Kubernetes to gain benefits from resilience engineering! Learn how Honeycomb improved the reliability of our Zookeeper, Kafka, and stateful storage systems through terminating nodes on purpose. We'll discuss the initial manual experiments we ran, the bugs in our automatic replacement tools we uncovered, and what steps we needed to progress towards continuously running the experiments. Today, no node at Honeycomb lives longer than 12 months, and we automatically recycle nodes every week.
Enhancing Observability in DevSecOps
Digital transformation often accelerates innovation at the expense of creating an intelligence gap with massive amounts of unanalyzed data. This is where Continuous Intelligence comes into play. Join Sumo Logic’s Systems Engineer, Suresh Govindachetty, as he demonstrates how Continuous Intelligence helps find and solve information gaps, and how a single platform approach allows organisations to combine devs, operations, and security in ways that ease the burden for all teams across the organisation.
