Description

Daylight savings can bring chaos to systems such as rogue processes consuming CPU or memory and therefore impact your critical systems. The question is: how do you systems react to this chaos? How can you test for this? And how can you make your systems more resilient against this chaos?In this episode we talk with Ana Margarita Medina, Chaos Engineer at Gremlin. In her previous job, Ana (@Ana_M_Medina) was a Site Reliability Engineer at Uber where she helped coping with the “chaos” on New Years Eve or Halloween. Ana gives us great insights into the discipline of Chaos Engineering, that its really about running controlled experiment and that everyone can get started that has an interest in contributing to more resilient systems.Here the additional links we promised during the recording: Drift into failure, Chaos Engineering Community, Chaos Engineering and System Resilience in Practice.https://www.linkedin.com/in/anammedina/https://twitter.com/Ana_M_Medinahttps://eng.uber.com/nye/https://www.amazon.com/Drift-into-Failure-Sidney-Dekker/dp/1409422216https://www.gremlin.com/community/https://www.amazon.com/Chaos-Engineering-System-Resiliency-Practice/dp/1492043869

The brutal truth about digital performance engineering and operations.Andreas (aka Andi) Grabner and Brian Wilson are veterans of the digital performance world. Combined they have seen too many applications not scaling and performing up to expectations. With more rapid deployment models made possible through continuous delivery and a mentality shift sparked by DevOps they feel it’s time to share their stories. In each episode, they and their guests discuss different topics concerning performance, ranging from common performance problems for specific technology platforms to best practices in development, testing, deploying and monitoring software performance and user experience. Be prepared to learn a lot about metrics.Andi & Brian both work at Dynatrace, where they get to witness more real world customer performance issues than they can TPS report at.
