Dev ops finishes what agile started - Manfred MoserDevopsdays
The document discusses how DevOps finishes what Agile started by integrating development, security, and operations. It notes that organizations struggle to manage the increasing complexity, diversity, volume, and pace of change of the many components that modern applications rely on. Adopting DevOps practices like continuous integration/delivery and automating policies is necessary for organizations to effectively manage components and release applications while minimizing security and quality risks. The document advocates for "shifting security left" by incorporating security practices earlier in the development process.
This document discusses using a PID controller to dynamically limit the rate of MySQL backups using innobackupex to avoid overloading the storage servers. It describes setting up pv to monitor and rate limit the backup, with a remote PID controller adjusting the limit in real time based on iostat metrics to keep the storage servers optimally utilized during backups. The controller aims to keep the average queue size around 1.0 on the storage devices containing MySQL data files.
Heka is a unified data processing tool that can replace multiple existing tools like collectd, statsd, logstash, and riemann. It acquires data from various sources through inputs, transforms and transports the data through splitters, decoders, filters and a router. The data can then be output to external services, other Heka instances, or a dashboard. Plugins are added dynamically through sandboxes without needing to restart the service, and misbehaving plugins are automatically shut off. Heka aims to reduce the number of processes to manage by providing a single flexible and configurable tool that can be easily extended to handle different data processing needs.
The document describes the evolution of alert workflows at a gaming company. Traditionally, all alerts went to operations teams who had to track down the relevant developers. A new system routes each alert directly to the team that can resolve it, whether operations, a specific development project, or analytics. This improves response time by ensuring alerts go to those responsible without operations having to transfer the issue. Status updates are also provided via an IM bot for better communication across teams.

What science tells us about information infrastructure - Mark BurgessDevopsdays
This document discusses the challenges of information technology (IT) infrastructure given its uncertain and dynamic nature. While IT would be easier if systems were deterministic, they are only in approximate balance due to environmental complexity impacting sensitivity. Continuous delivery requires continuous automation rather than power-assisted intervention. There is no such thing as an immutable system since intended changes do not prevent unintended changes. Failures are semantic and processes are dynamic, making control difficult, as the history of engineering shows the challenges of preventing cracks from spreading.
