Log Analytics: Understanding Complex Systems at Scale • Kresten Krab Thorup • GOTO 2020

This presentation was recorded at GOTOpia November 2020. #GOTOcon #GOTOpia http://gotopia.eu Kresten Krab Thorup - CTO at Humio @krestenkrab ORIGINAL TALK TITLE Log Analytics to the Rescue — Understanding Complex Systems at Scale ABSTRACT In today’s complex deployment environment, our systems are increasingly more difficult to understand. When “the system” is a composite distributed system using cloud technologies and micro services, things happen everywhere and it’s difficult to get a feel for the system as a whole. With this distributed deployment, fixing system issues is inherently problematic and a simple, scalable solution is critical. During this talk, Kresten will discuss the importance of having the capability to understand, monitor, and debug complex systems using log analytics in real-time and at a massive scale. Kresten will also cover how Humio is used to support and develop Humio — itself a distributed system at scale — and how the architecture is radically different [...] TIMECODES 00:00 Intro 00:55 How did I end up here? 14:27 Demo: What is Humio? 17:27 How does it work? 31:35 Some lessons learned 38:00 Outro Download slides and read the full abstract here: https://gotopia.eu/november-2020/sessions/1655/log-analytics-to-the-rescue-%E2%80%94-understanding-complex-systems-at-scale https://twitter.com/GOTOcon https://www.linkedin.com/company/goto- https://www.facebook.com/GOTOConferences #Humio #Logs #Analytics #Complexity #ComplexSystems #Observability #Logging #KrestenKrab Looking for a unique learning experience?
