Summary:

Velocity San Jose June 2017 was a gathering of the world's top CTOs, DevOps practitioners, SREs, systems architects, Cloud team leaders, and application developers. Their goal: define and share the best ideas and technologies for building a stronger and faster web. This video compilation provides a complete recording of over 90 inspirational keynote addresses, in-depth tutorials, and individual sessions delivered at this thought provoking event—more than 70 hours of material to view at your own pace. Keynote highlights include Martin Woodward's (DevOps program manager, Microsoft) tale of how Microsoft transitioned 65,000 Microsofties to DevOps in the public cloud; Dianne Marsh's (director of engineering, Cloud Tools, Netflix) reflections on how things have changed (and stayed the same) in her 30-year software career; Kelsey Hightower's (staff developer advocate, Google Cloud Platform) recount of his experiences building cloud-native applications with Kubernetes and Istio; and Cliff Crocker's (VP Product, Akamai) talk on "The False Dichotomy of Finders Versus Fixers" (you have to see/hear it to understand it). One of the best values in this compilation is unfettered access to each of Velocity's 10 in-depth tutorials (3.5 hours each). A few samples include training on how to build a multinode, secure Docker Swarm cluster; how to deploy and manage a multicontainer, highly available microservice app inside a cluster; a hands-on data science crash course for modeling and predicting the behavior of (large) distributed systems; and a course in Linux performance monitoring using BPF. The real gold of Velocity has always been found in the precise and always on-point 40 minute sessions, and Velocity San Jose June 2017 was no exception. Here is a brief rundown of the amazing variety of topics and talks delivered in this compilation: Monitoring, Tracing, & Metrics (4+ sessions): includes Megan Antcil (Slack) on wrangling the best out of open source monitoring tools; Suman Karumuri (Pinterest) on PinTrace and the excitement of distributed tracing technology; and Christine Yen (Honeycomb) on why standard monitoring set-ups using pre-aggregated metrics aren't sufficient for complex systems. DevOps & Tools (6+ sessions): includes Laura Frank (Codeship) on the challenges (achieving quorum, leader elections, scheduling, etc.) of running a distributed system, and Sangeeta Narayanan on the lessons Netflix learned from operating a serverless-like platform at...
