ALERT RESOLVED: DOXSFO is back online

Our first Meetup since 2015, our first Meetup of many for 2017! We are kickstarting our Meetup this year with a subject close to our hearts and critical for successful DevOps: monitoring. We are preparing a rockstar list of expert speakers to share their insight on the latest and greatest best practices in monitoring.

As per our standard DOX format, the agenda will be as follows;

6.30pm — Arrive
7pm - 8pm — 3 x 20 minute talks
8pm - 9pm — Drinks and Pizzas

Talk 1: Avi Freedman, CEO & Co-Founder of Kentik

Title: The Network Knows

Apps generate the traffic, but the network delivers it. Many devops and netops stacks are completely separate, but it doesn't have to be that way!

In this talk we'll talk a bit about network traffic telemetry - sources, tools, and methods - and show how that data can be linked to metric, log, and APM systems.

Talk 2: Alex Solomon, CTO and Co-Founder of PagerDuty

Title: Anatomy of a real-life incident - How to leverage teamwork and co-ordination to resolve incidents faster

Major incidents can be very stressful, frustrating and chaotic experiences, especially if the on-call responders lack the proper process, training and coordination.

In this talk, we will walk through a real incident from PagerDuty’s own history, to illustrate what an effective incident response looks like. We will recreate the incident timeline step by step and go over all of the different roles involved, including the incident commander, scribe, customer/business liaison and subject matter experts. We will also cover the process and tooling needed to respond quickly and effectively to major incidents in order to minimize customer and business impact.

Talk 3: Roy Rapoport, Insight Engineering at Netflix

Title: A Holistic View of Operational Capabilities: How Insight Engineering at Netflix Works

Roy Rapoport will discuss the framework Insight Engineering at Netflix uses to think about the real-time operational insight space, the capabilities that any successful organization will eventually need in that space, and what Netflix has done in pursuit of addressing these needs at extremely large scale.
