Peter Mounce
I have worked in developer teams, an operations team, and been a generalist shipping software for JUST EAT since 2010 (with a few years doing that elsewhere first). I've lived through cultural and technological change and played a role in effecting it. I had a pivotal role in migrating our platform from a datacentre to the AWS cloud - consequently, we now do tens of deployments a week compared to a tens a year. I've automated systems, tests, servers, and in some cases myself. I've touched many parts of the platform and delude myself that I do an OK job at that.
I keep busy; I snowboard, climb, dive amongst other things. I live in north London in a house that is continuously inhabited by builders doing something or other.

Pete Mounce: How do you know your code is working RIGHT NOW?
Featuring Peter Mounce
You write your tests and you ship your code, but many teams stop there - "our tests are green, it's in production, let's get onto the next ticket!".
But then alarms go off. "But our tests were green! It can't be OUR code... Can it?"
Sure it can. Production is a...

Knowing what went bump in Production - modern monitoring in .net
Featuring Peter Mounce and Chris O'Dell
In the world of .NET, monitoring your application has traditionally been to install WMI performance counters and let Operations sort it out. This means learning about how to install performance counters, how to do this via scripts in the cloud, how to get the data out of them, how to alert on...

Rake.NET
