Cloud Speed Podcasts

In the final episode of our first series, we’ll be exploring the topic of operational excellence. We’re all too aware that the technological landscape, platforms we manage, and things we monitor, have changed significantly and become ever more complex. So how has monitoring evolved and matured into observability to keep up with this changing landscape? Join our panel of experts as we delve into the world of observability tackling questions including - what are the shifts from architecture to operations and how do we use this information effectively? How does ‘Chaos Engineering’ aid in achieving operational excellence, and finally, as a managed service provider, how do we adapt our practices to the variety of businesses we support?

Key questions explored in this podcast:

  • What is the difference between monitoring and observability?
  • How have architects adapted to the new operational mind-set?
  • Is the information provided by todays toolset just for the operations teams or should it be available to a broader audience?
  • How does chaos engineering dovetail into operational excellence?
  • How do we adapt our operational practices to the variety of businesses we support as a Managed Service Provider?
