Riverbed Presentation
Title: The “Sound” of Performance Monitoring Data
Date/Time: Thursday June 14, 2018 at 1:15pm - 1:55pm PDT
Location: Room LL20 C
Speaker: Jon Hodgson, Chief Scientist for APM at Riverbed Technology
At the conference, Jon Hodgson, Chief Scientist for APM at Riverbed, will lead a presentation that will explore how the digital media industry leverages fundamental digital signal processing principles to ensure that analog events are captured with precise fidelity, yet in the field of performance monitoring, these principles seem to be largely absent in many tools, which then imprecisely capture the performance data we rely on.
Using sound as a surrogate for monitoring data, Jon will offer an overview of digital signal processing concepts and investigate analogous real-world cases where performance data effectively “lied” to the troubleshooter, suggesting that overloaded resources weren’t and vice versa. Attendees will learn how to avoid these pitfalls and determine if the data from their monitoring tools is sufficient to detect and quantify certain common problems and how to read between the lines to identify when the data can (and cannot) be trusted. Along the way, Jon will explain how other fields have overcome these challenges and how some of their unconventional techniques can be applied to DevOps methodologies.
