The differing ways to monitor and instrument
Please log in to watch this conference skillscast.
Monitoring is complicated, and in most organizations consists of far too many tools owned by many teams. These tools consist of monitoring tools each looking at a component myopically. These tools metrics and logs from devices and software emitting them. Increasingly modern companies are creating their own instrumentation, but there is a large base of generic instrumentation of software. Fixing monitoring issues requires people, process, and technology. In this talk you will explore many common issues seen in the real world. For example decisions on what should be monitored or collected from a technology and a business perspective. This requires process and coordination.
You will discover what instrumentation is most scalable and effective across languages this includes the commonly used APIs and possibilities to capture data from common languages like Java, .NET and PHP, but you'll also learn about methods which work with Python, Node.js, and golang. Jonah will discuss browser and mobile instrumentation techniques. How these are done? Which APIs are being used? What open source tools and frameworks can be leveraged? Most importantly how to coordinate and communicate requirements across your organization.
You will walk away with a clear understanding of:
What is instrumentation, and what do you instrument, collect, and store?
The understanding of overhead and how this can be accomplished on common software stacks?
How to work with application owners to collect business data.
How correlation works in custom open source or packaged monitoring tools.
