Notes from AWS Dev Day 2018, Hyderabad
Highlights with additional notes from online sources -
Adrian Hornsby started his very engaging & insightful talk on Chaos Engineering with a XKCD cartoon & I was hooked
In the Principles of Chaos Engineering, Netflix defines the discipline as follows: Chaos Engineering is the discipline of experimenting on a distributed system in order to build confidence in the system's capability to withstand turbulent conditions in production.
Chaos Monkey was developed in 2010 at Netflix and released into wild in 2012 is part of the Simian Army. Built on principles of chaos engineering, the army increases resiliency to failure by injecting constant failure to the system.
Firefighters spend 80% of their time practicing.
"Chaos doesn't cause problems, it reveals them" - Nora Jones, Senior Chaos Engineer @netflix
Resilience is the art of lying to customers (mentioned in a lighter note)
Keep Calm and Think Big, Act Small
Intel has its own distribution for Python
Adrian presented many interesting points from his article series Patterns for Resilient Architecture — Part 1, Part 2, Part 3
Sohan, Alexa developer evangelist, informed that "Voice represents the next major disruption in computing" & that there are 15k Alexa Skills for India in his talk - "Build Voice-Enabled Experiences with Alexa". Following this there were 3 parallel tracks and in the Alexa track, he along with his team conducted hands-on labs on creating Alexa Skills.
I learnt new things and found the sessions very informative!
