AWS re:Invent 2016: Effective Application Data Analytics for Modern Applicati...Amazon Web Services
IT is evolving from a cost center to a source of continuous innovation for business. At the heart of this transition are modern, revenue-generating applications, based on dynamic architectures that constantly evolve to keep pace with end-customer demands. This dynamic application environment requires a new, comprehensive approach to traditional monitoring – one based on real-time, end-to-end visibility and analytics across the entire application lifecycle and stack, instead of monitoring by piecemeal. This presentation highlights practical advice on how developers and operators can leverage data and analytics to glean critical information about their modern applications. In this session, we will cover the types of data important for today’s modern applications. We’ll discuss visibility and analytics into data sources such as AWS services (e.g., Amazon CloudWatch, AWS Lambda, VPC Flow Logs, Amazon EC2, Amazon S3, etc.), development tool chain, and custom metrics, and describe how to use analytics to understand business performance and behaviors. We discuss a comprehensive approach to monitoring, troubleshooting, and customer usage insights, provide examples of effective data analytics to improve software quality, and describe an end-to-end customer use case that highlights how analytics applies to the modern app lifecycle and stack. Session sponsored by Sumo Logic.

Cloud Solution Introduction
23. Availability
Understand what is
“good enough”.
Preserve the UX /
endpoint health even in
failure scenarios
Durability
What is your worst case
tolerance for data loss
and time to recovery?
What is your acceptable
data loss window?
Security
Assume that breaches are
inevitable and mitigate
damage when they occur.
Keep the humans out!
Designing the Cloud for Compromise
29. Deploy, Rinse, Repeat!
You have a much higher degree of
confidence if you use deployment
automation, configuration management, and
frequently re-deploy. Why?
Our mantra is to automate early and often.
Replace deployments proactively rather
than reactively, and keep the humans out of
production environments wherever and
whenever possible.
Redeploy - don’t patch, hotfix, RDP
30. Legacy cruft piled
up by iterative
patching
Unknown security and ops
history; complete inability to
detect modern rootkits /
malware
Entropy is not your friend.
Reset to baseline as often
as practical.
No repeatability =
no recoverability =
eventual failure
Documentation is always
wrong when you need it
most.
Counting on humans to
operate systems
perpetually without failing
does not work.
Band-aids fossilize
into permanent
fixtures
The emphasis shifts and
never returns (until the next
crisis occurs)
Refactoring later is rarely
fun or glamorous work
There is no “just
do it once” in the
cloud.
Don’t believe the marketing
hype. “Lift and Shift” is a
recipe for failure 9 times out
of 10.
Why Not “Lift and Shift” Instead?
32. Thoughtful Cloud Adoption
Is this truly
unique to your
company?
Everything else
is a SaaS
(or a Lambda
function, or SPI
