Sampling in the Observability Era - Steve Flanders, Splunk

In Cloud-Native environments, traditional monitoring techniques are not sufficient to understand system behavior and cannot effectively address availability as well as performance issues. This has led to the rise of observability and the importance of distributed tracing data which provides context and correlation missing from other data sources. Typically, distributed tracing data is sampled due to the amount of data it generates and concerns about whether all data generated is valuable. While sampling is often stated as a benign or normal thing, it can greatly impact observability. As a result, it is critical to understand what sampling is as well as how each sampling technique works and their associated tradeoffs. This talk will deep dive into what sampling is and at conventions as well as industry practices to address concerns including cost, performance, and overhead.

The Monolith is Dead. Long Live the Monolith! - Mitch Connors & Jason Wang, Google

Monoliths! Who talks about Monoliths anymore? Didn't we move on to SOA and microservices a decade ago? Despite the domination of distributed architectures for cloud software, 60% of enterprise IT budgets still go to the datacenter, where the Monolith is King. While these legacy applications have historically been perceived as liabilities, new developments in service mesh enable enterprises to benefit from their monolithic assets while taking advantage of Cloud Native technologies. In this talk, you will learn about how you could embrace your monolith by enabling it with: * Zero Touch security with Envoy and Spiffe * Zero Touch observability with Prometheus * Zero Touch uptime improvements with Circuit Breakers * Zero Risk test in production with fault injection and canary deployment * Zero Risk traffic migration in Hybrid cloud environments (VM and multi-cluster)
