Event details

About the event

Observability has changed significantly over the past two decades.

‍

The technologies have evolved, environments have become more complex, and organisations now have access to more operational data than ever before. But many of the challenges remain familiar: knowing what matters, seeing problems early enough, and turning information into action.

‍

Cello, GKC and Splunk are bringing together a small group of technology leaders for a lunchtime discussion about what we have observed across hundreds of customer environments.

‍

Rather than focusing on product demonstrations or theory, we’ll share some of the patterns we see repeatedly: what tends to work, what often gets in the way, and where observability is heading next.

‍

There will also be plenty of opportunity to compare experiences with others facing similar challenges.

Who the event is for

This event is designed for technology leaders responsible for the performance, resilience and operation of complex technology environments.

‍

It will be particularly relevant to CIOs, CTOs, infrastructure and operations leaders, technology executives, architects and others responsible for observability, service performance or operational resilience.

‍

Attendance is limited to keep the discussion useful and conversational.
