The Power of Consolidation: A Unified Stack for Business Intelligence, Security, and Observability
Imagine you’re responding to a production incident, and you’re trying to answer simple questions about it. How many systems do you need to consult when assessing the impact of events at your company? Do you manage different technology stacks for observability, security, and business intelligence?
What if we told you, you could create a unified stack capable of serving all stakeholders simultaneously? In this talk, Mya and Josh explore how open source technologies like ClickHouse, OpenTelemetry, and Grafana enable complex business use cases using modern tooling and practices.
Regardless of your function, you will leave with a deeper understanding of how consolidating these concerns into a unified stack reduces technical complexity and provides a common language for everyone to use - from engineers building new features and product managers evaluating their success, to operators keeping the lights on and C suite’s birds-eye view of the company.
Whether you’re working with a data lake, or more of a data pond, we offer practical architectures and solutions to streamline your operations and bring your stakeholders together, all while using fewer resources.
Renovate your GitOps
GitOps has shown some significant improvements to the way software can be deployed and managed. For many, it’s simplified the deployment of tools and third-party services. It provides transparency around different workloads and their configuration. Still, there are many pain points associated with the practice.
In this talk, we’ll walk through getting started deploying and managing applications with GitOps. Using a few third-party applications, I’ll show how to set up a GitOps repository, strategies for leveraging CI to test new versions of applications, and even how to stay up to date. Finally, we’ll close with some considerations on scaling your GitOps practice.
gRPC on Kubernetes
Over the last few years, I’ve written and deployed many services to production using gRPC. These systems have run across different runtimes including Apache Mesos, Hashicorp Nomad, and Kubernetes. To help keep this talk focused, I will use Kubernetes for demonstration.
In this talk, I provide all the context one needs to get started. I’ll show how to deploy a service to Kubernetes. Then, I’ll set up liveness and readiness probes to ensure your service is only addressable once it’s healthy. I’ll walk through configuring several service addresses and discuss how they differ. Finally, I’ll deploy a client that uses the service addresses to perform a variety of workloads.
All code for this talk will be available on GitHub.
