The Python Show #4: Python Runtime and Tracing
Details
The Python Show #4 will be all about hacking the runtime. Our supercool guests:
- Elizaveta Shashkova, JetBrains (St.Petersburg): "The Hidden Power of the Python Runtime"
Python runtime contains a lot of interesting and useful information that's quite easy to retrieve. Let's check out the Python memory model, variables, frame objects, and what useful data they store. After that, we will discuss several powerful tools that are based on the runtime information and which can be very helpful for any Python programmer in their everyday life.
- Emanuil Tolev, Elastic (London): "How Code Tracing Works in Python"
It has been busy several years in monitoring and observability. As we’ve hit limits on the visibility and detail that logging and metrics provide, we’ve turned to tracing and APM (App Performance Monitoring) systems. We can now understand performance bottlenecks and see errors in our apps down to the line of code. But how do they really work under the hood? Come and find out! We'll walk through how a free APM system works - Elastic APM.
- As always, Boosted Boris 🥁
At the end of the show, everyone is invited to join a public skype call and talk about everything.
