Description

In his SLOConf talk Production load testing as a guardrail for SLOs and in his blog Production Load Testing, Hassy Veldstra, founder of artillery.io makes the case for load testing in production. It helped him in various organizations to establish SLOs (Service Level Objectives) and change the way engineers think about performance. He got inspired by Building Evolutionary Architectures which introduces the concept of performance as a fitness function.Tune in into our conversation, hear our arguments pro and contra load testing in the various environments and learn why in the end we agreed on the fact that SLOs – while nothing really new – are a great chance to re-define performance engineering.Linkedinhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/hveldstra/SLOconf: Production load testing as a guardrail for SLOs - by Hassy Veldstrahttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y20K1mJB6tkBlog: Load testing.

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.
