Circonus - Design Failures Case Study
Offered By: USENIX via YouTube
Course Description
Overview
Explore a case study on the architectural evolution of the Circonus platform, a telemetry ingest, storage, and analysis system for managing SLOs, presented at SREcon18 Europe. Delve into the journey from inception to current implementation, including the migration from bare-metal to Google Cloud, as narrated by Theo Schlossnagle and Heinrich Hartmann. Gain insights into the recursive lessons learned from using SLOs to manage Circonus itself, and examine the architectural challenges and failures encountered along the way. Learn about the "crimes against computing" committed during the platform's development and how they shaped its current design.
