Transformation of IT Ops When I think of the term IT Ops I immediately think of Enterprise IT and the traditional attributes that make up this function – many of which are in the middle of an industry-wide disruption – and its associated impact. At LinkedIn, when we first looked at business process support, shadow IT and non-accounted-for IT spend, about 10 years ago, it was a bit of a revelation to me how the landscape had already changed by then.

Did you give up and have a coffee? Did you use it to stay productive and get things done? Ok, I’m not your boss and sorry I asked that last question. Maybe if you were not productive it’s because an outage makes it hard to focus.
How fast is your website, and how does application performance affect the user experience even when small changes are applied? If careful attention is not paid to content delivery and hosting, speed and performance at scale become a full-time task. API latency, performance issues during traffic surges, and third-party services all play a role in general performance.
June and July are traditionally slow months. The sun is out, and there’s too much work reflecting off all our monitors for any of us to get much work done. For us, it’s doubly slow as we’re putting all of our efforts towards a big launch later this year. Still, some great stuff came out.
