Hey folks!

Happy to announce the 3rd meetup for Bangalore Monitoring and Observability Meetup group.

# Agenda

## 1010 - 1110 - Tracing at Slack: Thinking in Causal Graphs, by Suman Karumuri, Slack

Suman is a Sr. Staff software engineer at Slack, architecting observability stacks at hyper scale. He has built and operated peta-byte scale systems in all 3 pillars of Observability. He has led and advised on FOSS projects such as Zipkin, OpenTracing and PinTrace (End-to-End tracing system @ Pinterest)

## 1110 - 1210 - Our journey into building an Observability platform, by Venkat Vaidyanathan, Razorpay

This talk is shaped around Razorpay's journey of moving from paid APM tools to open source observability platforms. How they focused on their path, success and failure stories.

More specifically, when does it make sense to build vs buy, what are the challenges in building home grown solutions and leveraging and building upon some existing stuff. Alongside, also some interesting contribution ideas to the Open Telemetry Collector, its limitations, Scaling Issues amongst others.

### About Venkat

Venkat has been architecting a wide range of applications at scale for Razorpay for the last four years. He has built and led organizations, and has the most amazing tech stories to tell from his days at Yahoo and Adobe.
