Efficiency and Effectiveness

WIth unlimited money, most technology problems become easy to solve. But how do you design, build, and operate large scale, performant systems without breaking the bank? In this session, Chandru Subramanian (Director of Engineering, Runtime Efficiency at Datadog) and Neil Innes (Sr. Engineering Manager, DevOps at FanDuel) will discuss how they balance efficiency and effectiveness to save money while also meeting key goals.

CTO Fireside Chat

Building large scale technical systems is hard, but building and scaling high performing technical organizations is even more difficult. In this session, Datadog Co-founder and CTO Alexis Lê-Quôc will sit down with Prashant Pandey, Head of Engineering at Asana, to discuss their approach to engineering leadership. They’ll share the hard-learned lessons from their long careers to help you cultivate better technical teams, covering topics from staying in tune with new technologies, enabling innovation, shipping modern ML and AI-based features, and scaling teams.

Right Size, Right Performance, Right Time

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.

The Evolution of the Service Model In the Data Industry

Cribl’s Ed Bailey will lead a great discussion with nth degree’s Paul Stout and Scott Gray about the evolution of the service model from time and materials to outcome-based services. We will share our own stories about our experiences with services and how to make them better. Join the live stream for a fun discussion and come armed with suggestions for how to make your next services engagement better.

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.
