Food sponsored by Mezmo \;\n \;\n5:45pm - Streamlining Telemetry Data: Building a Telemetry Pipeline to Handle High-Cardinality Metrics b y Chelsea Wright @ Mezmo \;\n \;\nHandling high-cardinality teleme try data efficiently is crucial for modern observability systems. In thi s session\, we will explore strategies for designing a scalable telemetr y pipeline that can process large volumes of diverse metrics without per formance bottlenecks. We’ll cover best practices for data ingestion\, st orage optimization\, and query performance\, along with real-world techn iques to mitigate challenges like high dimensionality and resource const raints. Attendees will gain insights into building a robust telemetry pi peline that balances accuracy\, efficiency\, and cost-effectiveness. \;\n \;\n6:15pm - What Producing Sound Effects Taught Me About Distri buted Systems by Bret Bernhoft \;\n \;\nAs a sound designer and cl oud native developer\, I have discovered the art of crafting immersive a udio effects mirrors the science of engineering distributed systems. In this talk\, I will share how core audio production concepts like managin g feedback loops\, dealing with signal degradation and understanding the effects of reverb offer direct parallels to tackling challenges in micr oservices\, observability and network latency. Just as a single\, comple x sound effect is built from many interdependent layers\, modern applica tions rely on an orchestration of services and timing\, demanding both p recision and systems thinking. \;\n \;\nWe will explore how consid ering signal-to-noise ratio can clarify your logging strategies and how the art of mixing audio tracks provides valuable insights into resource limits as well as task prioritization within your deployments. By drawin g on these analogies\, this session aims to equip you with a new perspec tive that makes the complexities of cloud native architectures a bit mor e understandable\, all through the lens of sound. \;\n \;\n6:45pm to 8:00pm – Networking and Board games! \;\n \;\nNone of this woul d be possible without our amazing sponsors: \;\n \;\n Thanks to ProFocus for sponsoring the meetup space \;\n Thanks to Mezmo for sponsoring the food \;\n\n\nTags: kubernetes\, containers\, cloud\, operations\n\nImported from: http://calagator.org/events/1250482077 URL:https://www.meetup.com/cloud-native-pdx/events/308128729 SUMMARY:Cloud Native PDX July Meeting LOCATION:ProFocus Technology Professionals: 10200 Southwest Eastridge Str eet\, Portland OR 97225 US SEQUENCE:1 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
