Name: Observability & APM: a Meetup with Grafana, Qonto and Isovalent
Start: 2023-09-20T18:30:00+02:00
End: 2023-09-20T21:30:00+02:00
Location: Qonto

We are excited to invite you to the next Grafana meetup with our friends from [Qonto](https://qonto.com/fr) and [Isovalent](https://isovalent.com/). This event will be hosted by Qonto so a big thanks for having us!

This meetup is perfect for anyone interested in Observability & APM and willing to stay ahead in today's dynamic technology landscape. We will talk about several technologies including OpenTelemetry, the LGTM stack, Cilium, eBPF, etc

The doors will open at 18:30 and presentations begins at 19:00. And, of course, there will be plenty of time for food/drink and conversations with your fellow enthusiasts.

So mark your calendars, spread the word, and get ready for an unforgettable Meetup. We can’t wait to see you there!

**Talks details**

**Talk 1: One datastore to ingest them all: Monitoring AWS-managed services using Grafana Loki**
*"Most AWS-managed services generate logs, which we, as SREs greatly value. Logs are like breadcrumbs to us, just as they were to Hansel and Gretel, leading the way and preventing us from getting lost. At Qonto, we made a deliberate decision to ingest all the necessary logs, without any compromises, in order to achieve comprehensive observability of our systems.*

*So, how did we accomplish this? Was it worth it? And what was the associated cost? Allow us to share our experience of leveraging Loki to ingest 70,000 log records per second from various AWS services.*

**Speaker:** Christophe Collot, SRE @ Qonto
*Christophe is a self-taught engineer from France who specializes in Site Reliability Engineering.* He spends most of his time building systems with open-source technologies. In his free time, Christophe enjoys traveling and discovering new cultures, but he would also settle for a good *book by the pool with a lemon sorbet.*

**Talk 2: Applications Performance Monitoring (APM) with OpenTelemetry and Grafana**
Proprietary APM solutions have provided immense value to developers, yet are very expensive, in part because there was no good way to assemble a similar feature set in Open-Source Software (OSS). Everything from the agents over the collection layers to the backends were proprietary. This is now changing with OpenTelemetry and its instrumentation SDKs and backends like Prometheus, Loki and Tempo.

This talk will show you how you could leverage the power of OpenTelemetry and Open Source backends like Prometheus, Loki and Tempo to build a compelling APM solution. We will also cover implementation risks and the upcoming improvements in the OTel community that will make things easier and more valuable. All built with and on top of OSS.

**Speaker**: Abdelkrim Hadjidj, Solution Engineering Manager @ Grafana Labs
Abdelkrim is a SE Manager with over a decade of experience on distributed and data intensive systems. He helps customers in EMEA define their observability strategy and improve their systems' reliability. He is an Open Source advocate and works with OSS technologies such as Grafana, Prometheus, Loki and Tempo. He likes to share his experiences in meetups and conferences.

**Talk 3: Grafana & Cilium: How to have superpower observability**
Traditional mechanisms like network monitoring devices or cloud provider network flow logs fall short because they either require application modifications or rely on sidecar-based service meshes that affect performance. Learn how we can use Cilium and Grafana together to provide powerful observability for your networking layer, your service mesh topology and the runtime security. This is made possible by innovations at the Linux kernel layer eBPF, with eBPF and Cilium, led by Isovalent.

**Speaker**: Youssef Azrak, Senior Solutions Engineer @ Isovalent
Youssef is Senior Solutions Engineer at Isovalent, the company behind Cilium and eBPF. He started his career as a Network and Security Engineer and moved years ago to the Kubernetes and Cloud-Native world, focusing on the networking and security stacks. In his time off, he enjoys sports and spending time with his kids.
