    Abstract: In today's increasingly demanding online world, one of the quickest ways to drive existing or potential customers and users to a competitor is by having a nonperformant website or app. With users becoming more discerning, you need to ensure that you're providing the best web experience possible. This reality has pushed performance optimization to be one of the most important disciplines in app and website development. Well-designed and smooth-performing apps and sites can lead to greater conversion rates and a better user experience (UX) in all contexts. In this video course, designed for intermediate-level developers with an understanding of HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and web technologies in general, your host Max Firtman, shows you some of the most important things you can do to boost the performance of your web assets. As the saying goes, you can't fix what you can't measure, so to begin, you'll learn the important metrics to monitor and how to measure them.

    Abstract: Facing unprecedented challenges, the financial services industry is undergoing a fundamental transformation. Regulatory requirements to minimize systemic risk now encourage fair competition and transparency, transforming the "winner takes all" concept into a "co-opetition" environment. Now, companies must compete and collaborate to remain relevant in today's digital economy. How exactly will this work? That's where Distributed Ledger Technologies (DLT) come into play. This report-a resource for business and tech professionals alike-examines the potential that DLT and blockchain have for transforming the banking industry. Jorge Lesmes, Global Head of everis Blockchain Banking Practice, examines how these technologies have moved from pilot projects to in-production applications that provide real value and benefits to end users. In three separate use cases, you'll learn how DLT and blockchain can help bring about the "Internet of Value"-a secure method of sending and receiving value in the same way we transact data. You'll examine: How DLT platforms have the power to make the Internet of Value a reality How DLT and blockchain are used in real production environments The current challenges associated with DLT platform interconnectivity Using DLT to enable self-sovereign digital identity management Enabling interoperability among DLT platforms and traditional ledgers Using DLT to enable streaming micropayments

    Abstract: ARE YOU READY FOR AN ELEMENTS BOOK THAT BREAKS ALL THE RULES? This book breaks new ground by doing something for digital photographers that's never been done before-it cuts through the bull and shows you exactly "how to do it." It's not a bunch of theory; it doesn't challenge you to come up with your own settings or figure things out on your own. Instead, it does something that virtually no other Elements book has ever done-it tells you flat-out which settings to use, when to use them, and why. If you're looking for one of those "tell-me-everything-about-the-Unsharp-Mask-filter" books, this isn't it. You can grab any other Elements book on the shelf, because they all do that. Instead, this book gives you the inside tips and tricks of the trade for organizing, correcting, editing, sharpening, retouching, and printing your photos like a pro. You'll be absolutely amazed at how easy and effective these techniques are-once you know the secrets. LEARN HOW THE PROS DO IT Each year Scott trains thousands of digital photographers and, almost without exception, they have the same questions and face the same problems-that's exactly what he covers in this book. You'll learn: How to unlock the power of layers (you'll be amazed at how easy it is!) How to use Camera Raw for processing not only RAW photos, but JPEGs, TIFFs, and PSDs too! (And you'll learn why so many pros like it best-because it's faster and easier) The sharpening techniques the pros really use (there's an entire chapter just on this!) How to deal with common digital camera image problems, including brightening people in dark shadows and getting the best color possible The most requested photographic special effects, and much more! THE BOOK'S SECRET WEAPON Although Elements 2020 offers some digital photography features that Photoshop doesn't offer, there are plenty of features that Photoshop has that Elements 2020 doesn't (like channels, HDR, etc.). But in this book, you'll learn some slick workarounds, cheats, and fairly ingenious ways to replicate many of those Photoshop features right within Elements. Plus, you can download many of the images used in the book, so you can follow right along with the techniques. Since this book is designed for photographers, it doesn't waste your time talking about what a pixel is, how to frame a shot or set your exposure, etc., and there's no talk about which camera or printer to buy. It's all Elements, step by step, cover to cover, in the only book o...

    Abstract: Data science, visualization, and artificial intelligence are powerful tools, but they can reinforce structural inequalities like sexism and racism. How do we-CTOs, product managers, marketing managers, data scientists, developers, and others-navigate these ethical challenges? The short answer: feminism-a vibrant body of thought and action from the past 50+ years that provides a model for analyzing and addressing the unequal distribution of power in the world as well as working toward data fairness. In this Spotlight on Data , Catherine D'Ignazio and Lauren Klein discuss key concepts from their forthcoming book, Data Feminism (MIT Press, 2020), which applies feminist ideas to data science and outlines seven principles for using data in the service of greater justice. You'll learn what "data feminism" means, how to evaluate your data practices through a feminist lens, and why feminism is not just for, about, or by women. You'll also discover how the principles of data feminism apply to different stages of the data processing pipeline, from project inception to collection to cleaning and analysis to communication.

    Abstract: Serverless is taking the cloud native world by storm. This new approach promises extraordinary value, from increased developer productivity to dramatic cost savings. In some aspects, serverless also boasts significant security advantages compared to the server model. But as this practical report explains, securing serverless still requires diligence from the developers and application security professionals involved in the process. Guy Podjarny and Liran Tal from Snyk examine the significant benefits that serverless brings to application security, as well as the considerable risks involved when you configure a serverless system. You'll also learn a platform-agnostic security model known as CLAD that will help you address C ode vulnerabilities, L ibrary vulnerabilities, A ccess and permissions, and D ata security. This report helps you: Understand what serverless is and how this model evolved from cloud native processes Explore the three primary areas where serverless improves security Learn how the CLAD model provides four categories to help you home in on specific security issues Follow a detailed example that demonstrates how poor security manifests in real-world serverless applications

    Abstract: WebAssembly is a powerful tool for porting applications to the web and for speeding up data-intensive web apps. If you don't know what WebAssembly is, how it works, or how to practically get started using it, now's your chance. Robert Aboukhalil (Invitae) leads a deep dive into WebAssembly, demonstrating how it can be used to speed up web tools. As a concrete case study, he'll use fastq.bio, a web tool for analyzing DNA sequencing data in the browser. By rewriting portions of this tool into WebAssembly, he demonstrates how it's possible to obtain a greater than 10x speedup compared to the original JavaScript implementation. Robert will also show you how to leverage WebWorkers alongside WebAssembly to maintain the UI's responsiveness and how this enables you to more easily mount and parse files within a virtual filesystem. He concludes by exploring how WebAssembly can be useful outside the browser-demonstrating how it's possible to rearchitect fastq.bio so that the WebAssembly code runs in a serverless fashion instead of directly in the browser. And because WebAssembly isn't always the right tool, Robert also explores some rules of thumb on when to use WebAssembly and when to avoid it. Prerequisite knowledge Intermediate knowledge of JavaScript What you'll learn Understand what WebAssembly is and how it works Learn to compile C/C++ code to WebAssembly and run it in the browser, use WebWorkers to run computations in the background, and run WebAssembly in a serverless setting Know when to use WebAssembly and when to avoid it This session was recorded at the 2019 O'Reilly Open Source Software conference in Portland.

    Abstract: Deciding what to work on is always difficult and is especially treacherous for folks working as infrastructure engineers and leaders. Infrastructure teams that solve the right problems subtilely shift their company's trajectory upwards. Poor approaches lead toward a morass of firefighting and frustration. With so many opportunities and sometimes fuzzy metrics, planning is threading a needle between the tyranny of choice and the specter of ambiguity. Will Larson (Stripe) unpacks the process of picking and prioritizing technical infrastructure work, which is rarely if ever discussed but is so essential to long-term company success. Will shares Stripe's approach to evolving your approach to prioritizing infrastructure as your company scales, justifying-and maybe even expanding-your company's spend on technical infrastructure, exploring the whole range of possible areas to invest into infrastructure, adapting your approach between periods of firefighting and periods of innovation, and balancing investment in supporting existing products and enabling new product development. You'll come away with a broad set of tools, frameworks, and ideas for plotting the future of your technical infrastructure. This session was recorded at the 2019 O'Reilly Velocity Conference in San Jose.

    Abstract: Christie Koehler (HashiCorp) takes you through the fundamentals of Terraform as she uses it to deploy cloud infrastructure live. You'll orient yourself to the current state of the infrastructure as Christie open as a cloud shell and inspects the Terraform state file, then makes some changes to the Terraform configuration, which deploys a new pod and configures a web service for that pod. Terraform plan with those changes, review the plan, and apply. Take a look with Christie at the Kubernetes dashboard to verify the changes have been made, and review and approve a pending pull request to the Terraform configuration that sets up a simple serverless app in the cloud infrastructure. As before, Terraform plan with those changes, review, and apply. Then take a look at the cloud provider dashboard to verify the serverless function or application has been deployed, and test it. If there's time, Christie will walk you through how to detect and manage drift (i.e., when infrastructure changes outside of Terraform). This session was recorded at the 2019 O'Reilly Open Source Conference in Portland, OR.

    Abstract: Building microservices applications introduces more complexity into your architecture. Highly distributed applications on elastic, ephemeral infrastructure that communicate heavily over the network make for an environment where an application is always in a fluid, partially failing state at all times. To help developers transition from the monolithic way of designing and building software to a more service-oriented approach, we need to bridge the gap in tooling to help diagnose and understand what a normal state looks like and how to recover from a non-normal state. Mitchell Kelley and Scott Cranton (solo.io) discuss the types of failures that can occur, namely networking, application behavior/code, and storage, and present a systemic workflow for prodding and exploring a system to detect faults and abnormal behavior. This framework builds on the practices known as chaos engineering. Mitchell and Scott take a look at two open source projects that aim to complement this workflow: the Squash project, for step-by-step distributed microservices debugging, and Gloo Shot, a newly created chaos engineering framework. Prerequisite knowledge Familiarity with debugging applications and building distributed applications A basic understanding of services-oriented applications What you'll learn Understand chaos engineering Learn how to debug distributed applications with appropriate tooling Investigate the requisite workflow to apply toward system behavior exploration This session was recorded at the 2019 O'Reilly Open Source Software conference in Portland.

    Abstract: Use this beginner's guide to understand and work with Kubernetes on the Google Cloud Platform and go from single monolithic Pods (the smallest unit deployed and managed by Kubernetes) all the way up to distributed, fault-tolerant stateful backing stores. You need only a familiarity with Linux, Bash, and Python to successfully use this book. Proficiency in Docker or cloud technology is not required. You will follow a learn-by-doing approach, running small experiments and observing the effects. Google open sourced Kubernetes in 2015 and now it is the industry standard in container orchestration. It has been adopted by all leading vendors of cloud, on-prem, and hybrid infrastructure services: Microsoft (Azure AKS), Amazon (AWS EKS), IBM (IBM Cloud Kubernetes Services), Alibaba Cloud (ACK), RedHat (OpenShift), and Pivotal (PKS). Even though Kubernetes is offered by all of the market-leading cloud providers, the Google Cloud Platform (GCP) offers an integrated shell (Google Cloud Shell) and a $300 credit to get started, which makes it the ideal platform to not only learn Kubernetes but also to implement final production workloads. What You Will Learn Set up a Kubernetes cluster in GCP Deploy simple Docker images using monolithic Pods Arrange highly available and highly scalable applications using Deployments Achieve zero-downtime deployments using the Service controller Externalize configuration using ConfigMaps and Secrets Set up batch processes and recurrent tasks using Jobs and CronJobs Install horizontal (sidecar pattern) services using DaemonSets Implement distributed, stateful backing stores using StatefulSets Who This Book Is For Beginners with basic Linux admin and scripting skills (Bash and Python). Proficiency with Docker is not required as all examples in the book use off-the-shelf public images from Docker Hub.

During the course of his business journey, Eric struggles to take his burgeoning company to the next level. A chance encounter introduces him to Carl, a retired multimillionaire. Carl offers Eric the opportunity to take any material and supplies from his log cabin in exchange for demolishing the building. While working on the cabin, Eric discovers an unexpected and mystifying gift from Carl, a note and a wooden token. As his relationship with Carl evolves, Eric is faced with countless business challenges and growth. Carl becomes a close friend and indispensable mentor offering his wisdom, knowledge, and business tips (tokens).

    Abstract: A comprehensive book of "need-to-know" insights for busy leaders Being a great leader means getting the fundamentals right. It also means consistently doing the "little things" that make a positive difference in the lives of employees, customers, and other stakeholders. The Busy Leader's Handbook: How to Lead People and Places That Thrive is a practical, easy-to-use book filled with gentle reminders of what we should be doing every day-especially when work is at its most intense. The Handbook is packed with proven best practices, tools, tips, and tactics for engaging employees, revitalizing cultures, delighting customers, and building high-performance companies. Short, succinct, and accessible, each chapter is "stand-alone," offering helpful advice for meeting common business challenges. Plus, the strategies, approaches, and tactics are designed to be put into action immediately. Best-selling author, businessman, visionary, and entrepreneur Quint Studer draws on his 30-plus years of experience in helping organizations of all sizes and leaders at every level reach peak performance. Comprehensive in scope, his book overflows with insights and practical advice to help you make smart leadership decisions. For example: Why putting the right foundational structures in place early on creates clarity and heads off problems that cause businesses to struggle and fail The importance of followership: why being a good leader requires that you first be a good follower Why we tend to run from self-disruption and a sense of being unsettled (and how to learn to embrace them instead) Why leaders should seek consent, not consensus How to engage employees and create a positive workplace culture How to help employees find meaning and purpose in their work How to conduct difficult conversations and resolve conflicts-and why having these skills (or not) can make or break you as a leader Advice for attracting and hiring the best talent, retaining them over time, and dealing with the low performers who drive them away Why mentoring is so powerful and how to encourage it inside your company Tips and tactics for seeing the world through your customer's eyes How to reduce customer anxiety (and encourage them to buy) with the right words at the right times for the right reasons The Busy Leader's Handbook functions as a desk reference and pocket guide for anyone in a leadership position. It's also a great training tool for onboarding new leaders. Whether you work for a sta...

    Abstract: Technical debt is a funny thing. While the term attempts to make an analogy with financial debt, technical debt and financial debt have nothing in common. Instead, it's the name we give engineering decisions we disagree with. Robert "r0ml" Lefkowitz (Retired) offers an overview of technical debt, explaining how to recognize it, how to prevent or reduce it, and how come we see so much of it. Many so-called best practices today, are, in fact, technical debt factories. The reason we have so much of it is that we eagerly create it at earlier stages of an organization and fail to alter our approaches soon enough when the organization matures, and these early practices which were "investment" become "debt." Robert discusses many of these practices. One of these is microservices-often undertaken as a technique for increasing agility, at the cost of manufacturing tech debt. Robert details common methods for avoiding increasing the tech debt burden by deploying microservices. Robert explores two primary themes that apply to multiple software methods. The first is the principle of parsimony, which dates back to the ancient Greeks but was popularized more recently by the 12th century theologian William of Ockham. The second theme is the doctrine of immutability. This idea, too, flowered during the Middle Ages and is enjoying a renaissance today with the rise of functional programming languages. Robert dives into both of these ideas as they apply to data types, programming languages, network protocols, software dependencies, configuration management, and more. This session was recorded at the 2019 O'Reilly Software Architecture Conference in New York.

It's a feature of the modern business landscape, but how can you make the best use of this powerful, 21st-century tool to both get your job done and have fun? In this book, Glenn Fleishman addresses every major type of Slack user: New user: If you're interested in or tempted by Slack but have never used it, this book will help you get up to speed quickly. Experienced user: If you use Slack already and want to get more out of it, this book will guide you to more efficient and more sophisticated use and control. Reluctant user: If Slack is a requirement for your workplace, nonprofit group, or other organization, this book will help you overcome frustration and confusion. Slack can make your work life better. This book helps you master Slack! It shows you things you'll never learn by reading the online documentation or simply poking around, based on Glenn's years of experience in multiple Slack teams. Among the many questions this book answers are: How do I get started using Slack, including creating my first workspace? How can I manage the number (and manner) of notifications I get on my desktop and on my mobile devices? Is there any way to edit the message I just posted so I can fix a mistake? How do I find other channels in my Slack workspace-or make new ones? How do I make audio or video calls in Slack, or use screen sharing? What are the differences between direct messages and public messages in Slack? How much privacy can I expect in Slack from coworkers, bosses, owners, and Slack itself? How much can I do in Slack for free? What features make sense to pay for? How do people find and enter emoji in messages? What does it mean when names in the sidebar are bold or italic? What do the numbers next to channel or conversation names indicate? What exactly is Slackbot, and why is it talking to me? How do I perform advanced searches to find what I need? How do I find and install Slack apps? Take Control of Slack replaces two previous titles: Take Control of Slack Basics and Take Control of Slack Admin . Although this new book borrows some elements from its predecessors, it's a brand-new, completely rethought guide that's up to date with the latest versions of Slack (right down to its brand-new icon!).

    Abstract: Kubernetes namespaces partition workloads into virtual clusters so multiple teams or applications can safely share a physical cluster. Today, there is no common consensus on how to use Kubernetes namespaces and namespaced objects in relation to identity, resource limits, and security. As the number of teams, clusters, and namespaces grows within an organization, it becomes increasingly difficult to maintain any kind of coherence. Amy Chen (VMware) discusses how, by aligning identity, resource limits, and your application's security posture, cluster operators can get more organizational mileage out of Kubernetes namespaces. She walks you through common scenarios of how organizations use namespaces today; breaks down namespaces in relation to your workloads and users; compares various approaches to namespace management; shows how to enforce RBAC, resource limits, and your application's security posture within namespaces; and outlines friction in existing namespace management workflows.

    Abstract: An introduction to semi-Riemannian geometry as a foundation for general relativity Semi-Riemannian Geometry: The Mathematical Language of General Relativity is an accessible exposition of the mathematics underlying general relativity. The book begins with background on linear and multilinear algebra, general topology, and real analysis. This is followed by material on the classical theory of curves and surfaces, expanded to include both the Lorentz and Euclidean signatures. The remainder of the book is devoted to a discussion of smooth manifolds, smooth manifolds with boundary, smooth manifolds with a connection, semi-Riemannian manifolds, and differential operators, culminating in applications to Maxwell's equations and the Einstein tensor. Many worked examples and detailed diagrams are provided to aid understanding. This book will appeal especially to physics students wishing to learn more differential geometry than is usually provided in texts on general relativity. STEPHEN C. NEWMAN is Professor Emeritus at the University of Alberta, Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. He is the author of Biostatistical Methods in Epidemiology and A Classical Introduction to Galois Theory, both published by Wiley.

    Abstract: Security concerns are often dealt with as an afterthought-the focus is on building a product, and then security features or compensating controls are thrown in after the product is nearly ready to launch. Why do so many development teams take this approach? For one, they may not have an application security team to advise them. Or the security team may be seen as a roadblock, insisting on things that make the product less user friendly, or in tension with performance goals or other business demands. But security doesn't need to be a bolt-on in your software process; good design principles should go hand in hand with a strong security stance. What does your engineering team need to know to begin designing safer, more robust software from the get-go? Drawing on experience working in application security with companies of various sizes and maturity levels, Wendy Knox Everette (Leviathan Security) focuses on several core principles and provides some resources for you to do more of a deep dive into various topics. Wendy begins by walking you through the design phase, covering the concerns you should pay attention to when you're beginning work on a new feature or system: encapsulation, access control, building for observability, and preventing LangSec-style parsing issues. This is also the best place to perform an initial threat model, which sounds like a big scary undertaking but is really just looking at the moving pieces of this application and thinking about who might use them in unexpected ways, and why. She then turns to security during the development phase. At this point, the focus is on enforcing secure defaults, using standard encryption libraries, protecting from malicious injection, insecure deserialization, and other common security issues. You'll learn what secure configurations to enable, what monitoring and alerting to put in place, how to test your code, and how to update your application, especially any third-party dependencies. Now that the software is being used by customers, are you done? Not really. It's important to incorporate information about how customers interact as well as any security incidents back into your design considerations for the next version. This is the time to dust off the initial threat model and update it, incorporating everything you learned along the way.

    Abstract: A RESTful approach to microservices can improve the stability and resilience of services, reduce the need for extensive changes and redeployment when the domain model changes, and greatly increase the flexibility of individual services, including the ability to automatically work with other newly discovered services. Mike Amundsen walks you through building adaptable microservices that take advantage of the features of REST, including statelessness, self-description, and using hypermedia to discover and modify application state. You'll learn how to design services that advertise themselves to the network, discover their own "partner" services, and can adapt to subtle changes to existing services without relying only on recode-and-redeploy patterns for maintaining overall system operation.

    Abstract: Learn how to combine the three most important tools in data science: Python, SQL, and Tableau About This Video How to use Python, SQL, and Tableau together Software integration Data preprocessing techniques Apply machine learning In Detail Python, SQL, and Tableau are three of the most widely used tools in the world of data science. Python is the leading programming language SQL is the most widely used means for communication with database systems Tableau is the preferred solution for data visualization; The course starts off by introducing software integration as a concept. We discuss some important terms such as servers, clients, requests, and responses. Moreover, you will learn about data connectivity, APIs, and endpoints. Then we continue by introducing the real-life example exercise the course is centred around: the Absenteeism at Work dataset. The preprocessing part that follows will give you a taste of what BI and data science look like in real-life, on-the-job situations. Then we continue by applying some Machine Learning to our data. You will learn how to explore the problem at hand from a machine-learning perspective, how to create targets, what kind of statistical preprocessing is necessary for this part of the exercise, how to train a Machine Learning model, and how to test it-a truly comprehensive ML exercise. Connecting Python and SQL is not immediate; we show how that's done in an entire section of the course. By the end of that section, you will be able to transfer data from Jupyter to Workbench. And finally, as promised, Tableau will allow us to visualize the data we have been working with. We will prepare several insightful charts and will interpret the results together.

    Abstract: One of the most challenging aspects of microservice architectures is selecting the right infrastructure to make your services work seamlessly and effectively. What frameworks, tools and managed services will you select to build, package and deploy your services, manage connections, monitor, and, most importantly, protect and leverage your data? Your choices include open source solutions, enterprise versions, and cloud service providers. Things only get more confusing when you realize that you might be one acquisition or business decision away from needing to architect a hybrid cloud or multicloud solution. Jeff Carpenter details specifically the use of technologies for persisting and moving data in microservice architectures. He examines the concept of "polyglot persistence" and the proper usage of different styles of databases, caches, and streaming solutions. You'll consider effective patterns for combining these technologies, using Apache Cassandra and Apache Kafka as examples. This session is sponsored by DataStax.

Cumulus, a free and open source framework, supports this vision via configurable workflows to ingest, process, archive, manage, and distribute NASA's Earth imagery. The Cumulus infrastructure is designed for scalability and reliability, using much of the AWS serverless platform, which enables Cumulus to scale in real time to be performant under the largest expected workloads. Cumulus is poised to make a huge impact on how NASA manages and disseminates its Earth science imagery. In one notable case, the NASA-ISRO Synthetic Aperture Radar (NISAR) mission, Cumulus will be used to collect more data in a year than exists in NASA's current archive. The NISAR mission will collect 45 PB a year and process that data at a rate of 1 GB per second. The need for Cumulus is proven through its application to NASA missions, but its application has extended beyond NASA's Distributed Active Archive Centers (DAACs). It's being used to monitor agriculture in Tanzania, apply machine learning models to estimate hurricane intensity, and generate air quality predictions using near-real-time forecast data. Aimee Barciauskas (Development Seed) outlines the motivation for Cumulus, the achievements and hurdles of the past two years, and its varied applications. You'll learn about the availability of the open-sourced software and how NASA intends to make its Earth Observing Geospatial data available for free to the public in the cloud.

    Abstract: Describing software or IT architectures and effectively communicating about architecture to (business) stakeholders is a relevant and important skill for all architects. Many architects can advance in that skill, since communicating (about) architecture is hard, especially to nontechnical stakeholders. Jochem Schulenklopper (Xebia) dives into theory, practice, and examples; he presents relevant theories, techniques, and examples of creating architecture visualizations that are attractive, informative, and easier to understand for nontechnical audiences. Visual communication (on architecture) has many facets to look at and can take many forms. Jochem touches upon theory, examples (and some not-so-great examples), and practical advice on each of those facets: basic visual attributes, composition/layout, color, text, graphs, sketches, icons, images and pictures, and storytelling.

    Abstract: Monitoring and managing API traffic can be a complicated undertaking. Most companies today need to deal with securing API traffic from outside their organizational boundaries as well as optimizing traffic between services running behind the company firewall. In this practical report, author Mike Amundsen introduces developers and network administrators to the basic concepts and challenges of monitoring and managing API traffic. You'll learn approaches for observing and controlling external traffic (known as the North/South model) and for optimizing internal traffic (the East/West model). You'll also examine the business value of good API traffic practice that connects your business goals and internal progress measurements to useful traffic monitoring, reporting, and analysis. Understand the challenges and advantages of initiating API traffic management Examine the North/South and East/West models for handling API traffic Monitor the health of your API system using traffic metrics and formulas Explore security basics including API keys, authentication, authorization, and encryption Maintain network reliability and resilience to provide a healthy and scalable infrastructure for your API platform Learn options for diagnosing and automating your traffic management approach

    Abstract: So you want to test your complex application that involves large-scale distributed systems. But how do you feel about testing it effectively just using your test environment? Today, automated testing of Netflix client and server applications runs at scale in production. Within a few years, the company's testing has gone from a low-volume manual mode to one where it is continuous, voluminous, and fully automated. Collectively, Netflix teams create hundreds of thousands of tester accounts every day, each being used in thousands of test scenarios, to the point where service providers are more wary of getting paged for causing instability to internal testers than for causing an external outage. Vasanth Asokan offers a study of the evolution and anatomy of production testing at scale at Netflix, explaining why there was a desire to test in production, what Netflix did to try to keep testing out of production, and where testing belongs, anyway. Along the way, Vasanth shares a few case studies to demonstrate both the benefits and the less tangible diffused impacts of concentrated, uncoordinated testing against customer-facing infrastructure. Vasanth also looks at other forms of testing, such as load, failure, and simulation testing, and explains the role they play in ensuring a fully functioning customer experience. Join in to learn whether the benefits outweigh the risks of executing untested code in production or whether it's better to focus on creating a production mirror. If you run large-scale distributed systems, this talk will better inform your overall testing strategy, illustrate specific techniques that work at scale, and provide trade-offs to consider.
