17.30u Lab Digital | Getting started with observability

Observability allows you to get in-depth insights into how your application works, how it performs and how your users experience your website.
In this session, we’ll explore how OpenTelemetry can give you valuable insights into your app’s performance and user experience. Learn to implement OpenTelemetry for effective tracing, gathering key metrics like render performance and Core Web Vitals. We’ll share real-world examples of how our teams use OpenTelemetry to spot issues early and boost performance. Whether you’re troubleshooting or optimizing, this talk will equip you with practical tools to understand and improve your application.

18.45u Mollie | Henrique Santana da Miranda | Beyond the Bluff: Strategic Decision-Making

We'll explore an approach that combines the strategic thinking of poker with the agile nature of software development.Our discussion will center around the concept of 'Working in Bets', a method that encourages us to:

• Make decisions with incomplete information
• Quantify uncertainty
• Learn rapidly from outcomes
• Improve our decision-making process over time

We'll also touch on how this approach aligns with nature-inspired problem-solving methods, to create more adaptive and efficient product development strategies.

By the end of this talk, you'll have a new perspective on how we at Mollie navigate the complexities of software development, make more informed decisions, and ultimately, build better products. Let's dive in and explore how we can go beyond the bluff in our strategic decision-making.
