Anticipate two days filled with a grand total of 34 lecture sessions conducted by renowned experts in the open source field. This year’s edition of the event is complemented by four outstanding workshops! Doesn’t that sound absolutely fantastic?

OLENA KHARCHENKO

DevOps transformation: Introducing Incident Management and maximizing Monitoring value

They will share their first-hand experience and best practices gathered within two years with over 40 platform and product teams.

 

ALIAKSANDR VALIALKIN

Large-scale logging made easy

Logging at scale can be a significant burden in terms of infrastructure costs and operational headaches. Despite its universal need, there is no universally perfect or straightforward solution. Aliaksandr, after extensive research on popular logging systems, has devised a comprehensive solution tailored for SREs, DevOps, and system engineers. This solution efficiently collects logs from various sources, stores them in a highly optimized log database, and supports lightning-fast queries. It seamlessly integrates with essential tools like jq, awk, cut, and others, making it an ideal choice for providing a logging platform across an entire organization or team.

 

 

MONIKA SINGH

Alert analytics

At Cloudflare, Monika and her team use Prometheus heavily. They have point-of-presence in more than 275+ number of cities, and each point-of-presence has their own Prometheus instance. All these Prometheus instances send alerts to a central Alertmanager, and with various integrations in place, they efficiently route these alerts for timely response and analysis. Additionally, all alerts are also stored in a dedicated datastore for comprehensive alert analytics, ensuring that they continuously improve their systems’ performance and reliability.

 

 

SHODIPO AYOMIDE

Best Practices for Secure Coding, Risk Scanning, and Ethical Disclosure in Open-Source

Shodipo discusses best practices for securing open-source projects, focusing on code security, vulnerability detection, and ethical disclosure. He’ll cover writing secure code, ongoing vulnerability monitoring, and clear disclosure policies. The aim is for developers to enhance open-source project security and leave with valuable insights.

stackconf 2022 | Is that an Ansible? Stop holding it like a Puppet

by | Aug 26, 2023 |

This entry is part 6 of 8 in the series stackconf 2022

Let’s take a walk down memory lane and see which insights stackconf 2022 has brought? Today we dive into Felix’ talk “Is that an Ansible? Stop holding it like a Puppet”.

 

What to Expect

Despite rumors towards the contrary, on-prem solutions are still going strong. Platform and service providers in these settings continue to have use for traditional configuration management tooling. Both Puppet and Ansible continue to be relevant in this context. But which is the right tool for you? How do you choose? And how do you get most out of your tool of choice? This session systematically gives you the insight needed to answer these questions for your organization.
