How often have you deployed an application that was supposed to be load tested well but then crashed in production? One of the reasons might be that you never took the time to really analyze real life load patterns and distributions. Brian Chandler (@Channer531) (https://www.linkedin.com/in/brian-chandler-8366663b ) – Performance Engineer at Raymond James – has worked with their Operations Team to not only start loving application specific performance data captured in production. They starting breaking down the DevOps Walls from Right to Left by sharing this data with Testers to create more realistic load tests but also started education developers to learn from real life production issues.
We hope you enjoy this one as we learn a lot of cool techniques, metrics and dashboards that Brian uses at Raymond James. If you want to see it live check out our webinar where he presented their approach as well: https://info.dynatrace.com/apm_wc_getting_started_with_devops_na_registration.html
