Best Practices Building Resilient Systems
Architecting for Failure covers the challenges (both technical and organizational) of constantly improving service delivery of a growing global company with a 24x7x365 service redundancy requirement.
The talk focuses on best practices and lessons learned in building resilient systems. Topics discussed include: multi-cloud positioning, geo-location strategies, best-of-breed provider mix consideration, organizational structure/hacking, and, of course, lessons implementing a comprehensive tech stack.
The talk wraps up by discussing approaches to reasoning about highly complicated systems in such a way as to identify even the most isolated technology challenges common in a modern organization.
