Abstract:
A typical HTTP request lifecycle could be divided on three stages:
A request can span dozens of diverse systems and platforms, and with that, many monitoring tools controlled by diverse teams in development, operations, performance and QA. These teams cannot collaborate efficiently as they lack unified data, leaving each team with different limited understanding of what is really happening. With the full lifecycle of the request not well understood and teams operating in silos, its no wonder the end result is unnecessary finger pointing during troubleshooting efforts such as performance incidents.
For a DevOps team to be successful, they must see the big picture and know the answers to key questions such as:
This talk will look at the tools available to monitor each stage of the request, and then examine how to unify this data into a single real time global view of the request lifecycle. During the presentation you will learn how unified monitoring of the request flow enables DevOps teams to see the big picture and collaborate using an unified set of metrics over a global dashboard.
