It’s been said that, “premature optimization is the root of all evil.” Contrarily, many engineers have also had to work with software riddled with so much technical debt and inefficiency that optimization is practically impossible and a complete rewrite is required. So when is the right time? In this panel session, we’ll talk with engineering leaders and architects about their approach to software optimization, when to do it, and how to design systems that scale and stay performant.

How to Build a Change Management Workflow

Change Management (or Change Enablement, depending on which ITIL version you prefer) provides a formalized way to consistently handle the changes required to improve IT services, IT and business operations and outcomes, and ultimately customer experience. Having a Change Management process has certain advantages, such as: For that reason, the smart thing to do is to have a proper workflow in place to address the three types of changes established by ITIL 4: standard changes, emergency changes, and normal changes.

How to manually instrument iOS Applications with OpenTelemetry

In this tutorial, we dive into the practical application of OpenTelemetry in an iOS project built with SwiftUI. We demonstrate how to set up the OpenTelemetry SDK, generate spans, and send them to a configured OpenTelemetry collector. Our example application displays a random sentence every few seconds. Each sentence generation process is instrumented with OpenTelemetry spans, which include an attribute representing the word count of the sentence.
