NOVEMBER 28, 2023

Even when the staging environment closely mirrors the production environment, achieving a complete replication of all potential scenarios, such as simulating extremely high traffic volumes to assess software performance, remains challenging. This can lead to a lack of insight into how the code will behave when exposed to heavy traffic.

This demand creates an increasing need for DevOps teams to maintain the performance and reliability of critical business applications. A broken SLO with no owner can take longer to remediate and is more likely to recur compared to an SLO with an owner and a well-defined remediation process. But there are SLO pitfalls.

Reinventing Performance Testing: Agile

Alex Podelko

OCTOBER 13, 2016

The difference between user stories and constraints approaches is not in performance requirements per se, but how to address them during the development process. From the performance testing side the problem is that performance engineering teams don’t scale well, even assuming that they are competent and effective.

SEPTEMBER 18, 2024

A mathematical guarantee is a formal, provable assurance about the behavior, performance, or properties of a system, algorithm, or process, derived from rigorous mathematical analysis or proof. Correctness guarantees assure that an algorithm produces the right output for all valid inputs, forming the foundation of reliable software.

Specialisation could be around products, business process, or technologies. One way to create a Spotify model inspired engineering organisation is to organise long-lived squads by retail business process hubs - i.e. specialisation around business process. Let's take an example of retail as a domain of interest. Certainly not.
