| O'Reilly Velocity Conference 10 Year Anniversary | John Allspaw | 02m |
A 2006 blog post claims operations as the new secret sauce, predicting developers run on others infrastructure and the role mix of code and ops shifts. The… | ||
| Resiliency in a service provider world | Kristopher Beevers | 06m |
Modern apps break on service provider failures so the concrete advice is to actually build redundancy not slogans. Avoid flip-the-registrar active standby name… | ||
| What we learned moving 65,000 Microsofties to DevOps... | Martin Woodward | 07m |
Moves 65,000 Microsofties from siloed tooling into a single cloud-hosted One Engineering System with a globally distributed 24x7x365 service. Migrates teams… | ||
| DevOps and incident management: A recipe for success | David Hayes | 05m |
Describes concrete product work: a system that cuts mean time to acknowledgment by routing and escalating on‑call pages, an operation command console and… | ||
| Perception and bias and metrics, oh my! | Dawn Parzych | 05m |
Claims that everyone shows bias and that a hidden bias blind spot skews metric interpretation, backed by the fact that there are 180+ biases catalogued; gives… | ||
| Achieve predictable performance | Alexander Grbic | 06m |
A single FPGA per server is integrated into Intel big‑data frameworks and APIs so unmodified applications use it transparently, offering look-aside and inline… | ||
| Internet traffic growth: Why platforms are critical for developers | Corey Scobie | 06m |
Argues that rapid traffic growth and global 4k live streaming would leave core networks short by several orders of magnitude and so edge computing clouds are… | ||
| The role of being technical in technical leadership | Camille Fournier | 06m |
Engineering leaders need three concrete skills: deep debugging that separates root causes (motivation, process, legacy code, product handoffs) when a team is… | ||
| Orchestrating chaos: Applying database research in the wild | Peter Alvaro | 04m |
Claims that lineage-driven fault injection uses database provenance to cut the fault space from astronomically many (2^100 ~ 10^30) down to a tiny set worth… | ||
| Future history | Artur Bergman | 03m |
Argues operations must prioritize safer culture and tooling by building sandboxed test clusters, strict resource quotas and mentorship pipelines so newcomers… | ||
| Performance is about people, not metrics | Tammy Everts | 04m |
Survey of UX studies ties small delays to big human effects: Google‑linked research shows 100 ms matters for perception; lab work with EEG headsets finds users… | ||
| Looking back to move forward | Dianne Marsh | 05m |
Graduation 30 years ago leads to a first job handed over as a binder-contained source for an entire project, building an analytical instrument for element… | ||
| Lessons learned from building a globally distributed database service... | Dharma Shukla | 05m |
Project Florence becomes Azure Cosmos DB: a turnkey, globally distributed database that replicates data to reduce latency to 99th percentile latency targets… | ||
| Building cloud-native applications with Kubernetes and Istio | Kelsey Hightower | 04m |
Argues that containerizing with Docker decouples app from machine and gives first-stage portability, then adopting cluster managers like Kubernetes decouples… | ||
| The false dichotomy of finders versus fixers | Cliff Crocker | 05m |
Argues that finding and fixing are not separate and shows a concrete path to connect them: Akamai’s April acquisition of SOASTA combines monitoring data with… | ||
| Removing engineering friction: Creating an evolutionary culture | Phillip Liu | 06m |
Argues that removing engineer friction through measurement and tooling produces faster, safer change: teams instrument production, push config and code through… | ||
| Preventing cascading failures in a global network | Dave Andrews | 05m |
Global CDN capacity was about 2–3 TB/s two years ago and now grows fast; containment is layered. Per‑box isolation uses control groups to prevent logging or… | ||
| The differences between microservices and containers | Tobias Knaup | 10m |
Containers work on laptops but break assumptions in production: machine-centric monitoring, log access and troubleshooting need reworking, and stateless… | ||
| Helping developers with continuous testing | Alon Girmonsky, Stephen Feloney | 13m |
Claims an automated continuous-testing platform that auto-generates functional API and performance tests from requirements flows or uploaded API definitions… | ||
| Indexing code for smarter applications | Tal Weiss | 10m |
Product captures code-level state at the moment of error, including source, variable values and full debug context, and reduces time to detect and fix from… | ||
| An Akamai for developers | Nick Tran | 07m |
Akamai describes a developer push that exposes its 200,000 servers edge cache across 130 countries and claims it powers one third of global Internet traffic… | ||
| Integrating FPGA's with API's for ease of use | Michael Strickland | 07m |
Intel embeds FPGAs under existing frameworks and APIs so a standard compression call can route at runtime to either Xeon or FPGA with no software changes, the… | ||
| Transitioning 69,000 engineers to one cloud system | Martin Woodward | 15m |
Microsoft moves 69,000 engineers from varied proprietary build systems to a single cloud PaaS, Visual Studio Team Services, and runs it with continuous… | ||
