Rethinking Metrics: Metrics 2.0

Speakers:

• Dieter Plaetinck, Engineer @ Vimeo

Abstract:

As the amount of metrics, software that produce and process them, and people involved in them continue to increase, we need better ways to organize them, to make them self-describing, and do so in a way that is consistent. Leveraging this, we can then automatically build graphs and dashboards, given a query that represents an information need, even for complicated cases. We can build richer visualizations, alerting and fault detection. This talk will introduce the concepts and related tools, demonstrate possibilities using the Graph-Explorer interface, and lay the groundwork for future work.
