Day 1 on a performance project, getting started without knowing anything or jumping into the fire fight during an outage, you might need to have a few good pointers on the first few steps to take in your performance efforts. In this episode we share our best tips on how to get started and what you can prioritize in your work. James imitates Jimmy Stewart and Eric Proegler joins us for the first full episode. This episode of PerfBytes is exclusively sponsored by our friends at www.flood.io. Check 'em out!

Awhile back James and I had a chat about this whole new serverless computing thing. Interesting new way to leverage shared infrastructure in the cloud, without having to know anything about infrastructure, or platforms or really much at all besides your code.

We are sharing details about performance, load testing, Phoenix, word on the street, squiggly carpet and speed dating.

James hosts a roundtable discussion with Carlos and Stephen, representing different generations of performance testers.

What's a benchmark? What's a baseline? What's the frackin' difference between these things? If you've ever been stuck in a meeting with someone who asks for a benchmark, chances are they have not a clue what they are saying. This episode is a response to a listener's inquiry to ask@perfbytes.com. This episode is formally sponsored by our good friends at www.flood.io and www.hpe.com - give them a visit to find out more about what they do!
