SUMMARY:An Engineer's Guide to a Good Night's Sleep
DESCRIPTION:Supporting modern day distributed microservice architectures ha
 s become infinitely more complex. Nicky Wrightson is coming all the way fr
 om the UK to share the mechanisms she has implemented to solve some of tho
 se operational issues and most importantly avoid getting support calls at 
 3am! Don't miss this great session!\n\nDoors open at 19:00 and talks will 
 start at 19:15 sharp\, please be on time!\n\nThere will be drinks and food
  after the talks\, as usual!\n\nWe will have a book to raffle among those 
 who arrive before 19:15!\n\n==========================================\n\n
 Talk: An Engineer's Guide to a Good Night's Sleep\nSpeaker: Nicky Wrightso
 n\n\nAs organisations look to empower engineers more\, and embrace devops 
 practices\, we have seen the support role change quite a bit too. Develope
 rs are moving from being purely third line support\, to working more colla
 boratively with engineers and operational staff. Also as we move to cloud 
 native microservice solutions the increased complexity and diversity of ou
 r production landscape means operational staff may well rely more heavily 
 on the engineers\, in particular out of hours.\n\nI have spent the last 18
  years working across a plethora of industries utilising a myriad of techn
 ology and approaches. From working on everything from trading applications
  to content enrichment APIs\, I have seen a lot of approaches and processe
 s try to help minimise operational support for developers.\n\nIn this talk
 \, I will be exploring and discussing some of my top approaches and techni
 ques to help reduce the risk of that dreaded 3am call! You will gain some 
 practical insight into how to handle failure in today's more complex distr
 ibuted microservice systems. This will include looking at approaches to re
 siliency\, understanding your system\, understanding the requirements for 
 fault tolerance\, and the developers' mindset necessary for this. I will b
 e peppering this talk with real world examples and an occasional war story
  along the way too.\n\nNicky is a principal engineer working at Skyscanner
  and formerly of the Financial Times. She passionately drives forward clou
 d native architectures and approaches that allow engineers to deliver deli
 ver business value quickly whilst also reducing the support overhead neede
 d for complex distributed systems.\n\n@nickywrightson\nhttps://uk.linkedin
