"How to be cool in the age of legacy" by @lillesand #NDCOslo
EC2 is Amazon's virtual machine service
Kibana is a log aggregation tool
Site Reliability Engineering is as much culture and mindset as technology
Traditional hosting is slow to scale
Keeping servers around for a long time results in "snowflakes" that are not fully documented or understood
AWS Autoscaling forecasts usage based on historical trends
AMI (Amazon Image Service) allows custom server images to be prepared and stored for future provisioning
Ansible is a YAML-driven tool used to configure servers
Octopus Deploy used to push deployments onto servers. Agents (calamari) run on each server in the farm
Watch video "simple made easy"
Traefik is a dynamic load balancer that supports transient servers that are spun up and destroyed according to demand
Consul is a service discovery tool. Used to track servers and notify load balancer of servers being added / removed. Agents running on each server report to master
Containers address the same issues, but not all applications can be containerised

My last session for #NDCOslo 2019 will be "Everything is Cyber-broken 2" by @troyhunt and @Scott_Helme. I missed their talk last year due to flight timings so I'm excited to finally see it!

Debugging hardware errors is difficult. Always check whether a bug can be reproduced on more than one machine
Some bugs just aren't worth fixing

Hot tip: when submitting an abstract, keep in mind that a team who has spent the past 13hrs reading abstracts should be able to grasp the essence of your proposal after reading it max 2 times. If not, chances of rejection is very high. #ndcoslo
Making this into a thread of tips on writing abstracts for a tech conference so that the agenda committee correctly understands your intent.
#2: If you're submitting an "Introduction to [insert hot tech here]", consider submitting a second proposal on an Intermediate or Advanced level as well (given that you know the tech well enough). There is a limit to how many "Intro to X" talks we can accept.

It’s the data. 1/
Dozens of cities have shared reams of data with Amazon that their own citizens do not have access to. This includes intel on future infrastructure investments, land use patterns, planned policy changes, and so on. 2/
Amazon will use this data to build out its empire: To site stores, warehouses, etc. To get in early on the right real estate. To beat out competitors because it knows things they don’t. 3/

And here's @btreynor to talk about the Transparent Cloud API, alongside Lingyun from @Snap who used it successfully during the FIFA World Cup to debug performance during traffic spikes. #GoogleNext18
