If you haven’t heard about the 6-R Migration Patterns, then you probably haven’t heard about the 7-R. The 7th stands for R(e-Fit).In this podcast we chat with Mandus Momberg (@MandusMomberg), Principal Solution Architect at AWS. Mandus is sharing what he has learned from small to large scale application migration & modernization projects. We learn about Modernization Factories, that it is key to have decision maker buy-in and that the most common migration scenario is R(e-Fit).Our biggest takeaway are the 3 key measures of success after a migration: Availability, Elasticity & Agility!

Migrating from your data center to the cloud is no easy task. In this episode, Patrick Kemble (@PatrickKemble), CTO at SambaSafety, shares their journey from lift & shift to AWS to re-architecting their applications using Cloud Foundry. Along the way, of course, they discovered many important aspects of monitoring. https://twitter.com/patrickkemble?lang=enhttps://www.sambasafety.com/

This episode is a recap of Andi’s presentation at AWS re:Invent where he talked common use cases Operation Teams have been auto-remediate over the years and how now Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) Teams take it to the next level. The key point of Andi’s message is to not only auto-remediate these and newer cloud native use cases in production. It is about shifting-left and preventing them upstream in the delivery pipeline. If you want to learn more check out Andi’s blog or watch the recorded session from re:Invent on YouTube.Also make sure to listen until the end to learn about how you can mail your Christmas wishes to either Santa Claus or the Christkind!Blog:https://www.dynatrace.com/news/blog/shift-left-sre-building-self-healing-into-your-cloud-delivery-pipeline/Video:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PsI4pc0NtoI

Encore Presentation:Goranka Bjedov ( https://www.linkedin.com/in/goranka-bjedov-5969a6/ ) has an eye over the performance of thousands of servers spread across the data centers of Facebook. Her infrastructure supports applications such as Facebook Social Network, WhatsApp, Instagram and Messenger. We wanted to learn from her how to manage performance in such scale, how Facebook engineers bring new ideas to the market and what role performance and monitoring plays.

Azure DevOps, formerly known as VSTS, is more than just a set of tools. But what is it exactly? How does it help enterprises to deploy better code faster? Does it only work for Azure or other platforms & clouds as well? How can it be extended or integrated into existing processes and tools?Abel Wang, Sr Cloud Developer Advocate at Microsoft, is giving us a tour through Azure DevOps and how he has seen it implemented and integrated into existing enterprise DevOps tool landscapes. We briefly discussed the Unbreakable Delivery Pipeline for Azure DevOps that Abel helped implement and is now available on the Visual Studio Marketplace. So – give it a try and see for yourself what Abel and team has built!Last but not least we also touched upon Azure DevOps for databases and how you to implement regression testing, continuous deployment and canary releases for database updates. Very intriguing topic that we are sure to cover in future sessions in more detail.https://abelsquidhead.com/index.php/2018/08/03/the-dyna

Happy Guy Fawkes Night!In the first episode with Ben Rushlo, Vice President of Dynatrace Services, we learned about things like not getting fooled by Bot traffic, which metrics to monitor and how RUM can replace your traditional site analytics.In this episode we dive deeper into RUM use cases around user behavior analytics, bridging the silos between Dev, Ops & Business and elaborate on why blindly optimizing individual page load times is most likely wasted time as you won’t impact what really matters: End-to-End User Experience!In our discussion we also talked about UX vs UI as well as importance of Accessibility. Here two links we want you to look at: Holger Weissboeck on Let’s put U in UX and Stephanie Mcilroy’s presentation at DevOne.Listen to Episode 70:https://www.spreaker.com/user/pureperformance/070-exploring-real-user-monitoring-with-Let's Put the U in UX:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qi19hls9LfYStephanie Mcilroy’s presentation at DevOne:https://devone.us/speakers/#stephaniemcilroyData vs. Info

Did you know that Azure Service Fabric is used by most of Microsoft’s global high scale services such as Bing, Dynamics or Xbox)? It’s a battle tested distributed systems platform that enables developers to deploy, manage and scale their microservices. In this session we have Sravan Rengarajan, Program Manager at Microsoft Azure, giving us an overview of the key use cases, how Service Fabric started and in which direction it is heading. We also learn how you get your own free local version of Service Fabric and why Service Fabric gets us towards real Serverless computing. Additional information can be found on the Service Fabric GitHub codebase – yeah – its all out there on GitHub!https://www.linkedin.com/in/sravan-rengarajan/ - Sravan on Linkedinhttp://aka.ms/servicefabricdocs - learn more about Service Fabrichttp://aka.ms/servicefabricmesh - learn more about Meshhttp://aka.ms/tryservicefabric - free clusters to party on!https://github.com/microsoft/service-fabric - GitHub codebase

Minecraft – the hugely popular sandbox video game – might not be your traditional software to monitor with an APM (Application Performance Management) tool. But Mike Villiger did it anyway in order to learn some advanced concepts in application monitoring such as custom entry points, thread diagnostics, method hotspots or simply to figure out why his mod’ed Minecraft sometimes couldn’t keep up with processing all the changes and skipped cycles. By using Dynatrace – first AppMon now Dynatrace SaaS – he learned more about the internals of Minecraft, how the single threaded architecture calls each mod and why a single mod must not take longer than 50ms to process. Mike gives us insights into which problems he found within Minecraft but more importantly what he takes away for his daily job as a performance advocate and evangelist. If you have any interesting side projects where you use APM tools let us know – there is always something to learn from every project!https://minecraft.net/https://twitter.com/mikevilli
