Honeycomb Learn Ep. 2: De-stress Debugging -Triggers, Feature Flags, & Fast Query

Oct 26, 2020

This episode in our Honeycomb Learn series looks at how to cut stress levels when debugging issues in production. Starting with a hypothesis, run fast queries, and then navigate to the code where the problem lies. Be proactive and set triggers to let you know if something needs attention. When engineering is about to ship a new release, set a feature flag to watch how production behaves in real-time. Curtail performance issues and reduce customer impact with the right tools to better understand production systems, right now.

Learn how to quickly go from hypotheses to fast query and pinpoint exactly where the issue is, how to set triggers based on thresholds important to your business, and how to set feature flags to control specific parts of your environment to reduce stress levels.
