Listen Later

Requesting more CPU for your database used to take 6 months of planning 20 years ago. Now it takes the execution of a Terraform script. What has stayed the same all those years is Almudena Vivanco's passion for performance engineering to keep systems optimized. Ensuring that systems are available, scalable and resilient even during spike events such as the upcoming Euro Cup or any holiday specials.
Tune in and hear from Almudena, who is currently working for SCRM Lidl, on how moving to the cloud gave new justification to performance engineering. She explains the importance of connecting business with service level objectives and gives insights on how Lidl makes sure to sell 50000 pieces of pork without breaking the cloud bank
