♥️ Performance + Observability = It's a DevOps match! ♥️

Performance testing in DevOps cycles has always been a push-and-pull struggle. In the past, the focus on load testing often difficulting the flow of release cycles. Unfortunately, in those early days, there were not many ways to gauge the performance of your solution without test automations.

In this talk, you will learn about the downsides of traditional load tests and the great synergy that modern DevOps teams can achieve by coupling modern performance techniques with observability at all levels. Shifting left, right, up, down, and everywhere becomes as seamless as the long-term relationship between these techniques.

We will cover the basics of modern performance testing and share tips on observability to help you create a harmonious and efficient DevOps environment. Join us to discover how to integrate these practices and elevate your DevOps game!
