James asks, store a value in a volatile market. My smart friend says that the biggest barrier to mass adoption is price volatility, which limits Bitcoin's use as a store of value. It's most convincing use case to date. It's a lousy store of value if the price keeps changing. Is this right? Are there other obstacles to mass adoption? What are they in your opinion? James, your friend may be smart, but I don't think they understand some of the basic economics of play here. First of all, I don't think price volatility really affects Bitcoin's use as a store of value. Store of value is definitely a long-term perspective. It certainly affects Bitcoin's use as a medium of exchange. But as a store of value, if you are buying and investing in Bitcoin and using it as a store of value, then you have a long-term perspective, certainly more than a year. How is Bitcoin doing in the last year? It's up about 600%. Sounds like a pretty good store of value to me. Over the last three years, definitely a pretty good store of value. If you look at it over three months, it's probably not a good store of value. But that's not what store of value means. Store of value is definitely a long-term perspective. The other thing about this is that it's a bit of a circular argument, because volatility really is an expression of size. For example, in a follow-up question, James said, we tend to harbor an expectation that this volatility, a key obstacle to Bitcoin's wider success, will eventually calm down. But Bitcoin's resistance to regulation is a feature, not a bug. So where will the stability come from? Absent of mass adoption and absent of regulation. I think there's a broad misunderstanding about how volatility is dealt with in capital markets and currency markets. The idea that regulators control volatility in a currency is an illusion. Regulation doesn't control volatility. If anything, regulated markets that don't have enough flexibility and liquidity are more volatile. I would say the biggest contributor to volatility is the small size of a currency. You've got to understand that Bitcoin is currently traded on a global basis. Unlike most other national currencies that have primarily domestic markets, Bitcoin is a global market. For a global market, it's tiny. It really is absolutely tiny. $100 billion is nothing in currencies, even for a currency that's only domestic, let alone for a currency that's traded globally. This kind of sounds like a circular argument, basically saying the biggest barrier to mass adoption is the lack of mass adoption. If only there was more mass adoption, then there'd be more mass adoption. The biggest barrier to Bitcoin being big is that Bitcoin is small. If only Bitcoin was bigger, then it could be bigger. That's what price volatility is. It's that this currency is small. If the fact that it's small is a barrier to it becoming big, that's kind of circular logic. As Bitcoin gets bigger, volatility goes down. As the market becomes more liquid, as it is traded more and used for different purposes, and not just speculation, I think that reduces volatility. The more companies depend on Bitcoin as an input, or use it for payments to contractors or providers, or hold inventory and purchase things based on Bitcoin, or sell things based on Bitcoin, the more the price volatility is reduced. Right now, it's mostly used for speculation. It's mostly dealt with as a short-term basis. It's traded globally in a wide-open market, and as a result, it's quite volatile. So, yes, Bitcoin will become less volatile as it grows, or at least I certainly hope it will. I think the economics would argue that. Ash asks, do you believe there are cartels in the crypto space? There is lots of noise about Bitcoin being manipulated in such things. What do you think? I think the Ladydoth protests too much. What I would say is, I wasn't hearing a lot of complaining about Bitcoin being manipulated when it increased 5%, 6%, 8%, 100%, 1,000% in six months. There wasn't much complaining about manipulation, pumping, and all of that, when the price was going up by a factor of 10%. Now that the price is going down for obvious reasons, anything that goes up, 1,000% in six months is bound to have a correction. I had started calling for a correction in October of last year, saying that these prices are unsustainable, and I got quite roundly bashed for that, for being a naysayer and a negative Nelly and all of that. The point is that anything that goes up 1,000% is likely to have a correction at some point. If it goes up too fast, it's going to come down even faster. As they say in trading, what goes up on an escalator comes down on an elevator. In this particular case, now we have a lot of people going on about how Bitcoin is being manipulated by whales, by the futures market, by world governments trying to dump crypto holdings in order to tank the market, etc. But the truth is that if you look at the broader market, it's not just Bitcoin. There's been a massive correction in tech stocks. There's been massive corrections in stock markets around the world. There have been massive corrections in currencies. Now there are also massive corrections happening in crypto. This is a natural response to a market that got overexuberant, with too much excitement. Too many people bought Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies, not because they believed in or understood the value of the technology. Not because they thought this technology was going to have a great potential for future returns, but they thought they would get rich in a matter of months simply by buying into a fad. That is a great to fool theory. That is not a good basis to invest in. When people were asking me, should I buy Bitcoin $16,000 now? I honestly told people your strategy should be based on dollar cost averaging and figuring out what you're comfortable with and understanding the technology. The more you understand the technology, the more comfortable you should be about your investment decisions. If you're asking me, and I'm not an investment advisor, then you shouldn't be buying this stuff. I don't believe there are cartels in the crypto space. Do I believe there's manipulation? Sure, absolutely. Do I believe there are various pump-and-dump schemes and whales trying to manipulate the price? Completely irrational buying, completely irrational selling that's pushing the price around? Absolutely. All of that is happening, but that's not the reason the price is crashing. I think trying to find causation in these markets is a fool's game. It's like reading T-leaves or predicting stock prices based on the alignment of the Zodiac.


Hello. Welcome, everyone. I am Richard Nipel, user pharaohs on the various Wikimedia projects, and I welcome to my landing talk today. I would like to share about Wikispor, which is a developing, germinating project in the Wikimedia movement. The idea behind it is to support innovation in the Wikimedia movement to create some new projects when they haven't been developing as much recently. If people aren't familiar, there is a process for proposing new projects in the Wikimedia movement. You can see quite a few examples. They're almost all under discussion and have been for many years. Something that I noticed is that there is a bit of a gap. There's no explicit process to develop a new project. And new projects that have been developed have only come through somewhat extraordinary circumstances. Like someone is working on a project with grant support from the Wikimedia foundation, or there was an unusual case where a wiki under a commercial provider decided to rebel and affiliated itself with the Wikimedia foundation. But that doesn't happen every day. So the idea of Wikispor is that it provides, in a wiki farm, a place where people can grow their own wikis in different formats, with different genres, with different configurations. And the idea is to create a system that can be used, not just to create one wiki, but many different wikis, sort of similar to something like commercial wiki farms, but for nonprofit purposes. And there's actually, there's often been a shortage, I think, of developing different genres of reference works that have sometimes tended toward commercial projects when they really would benefit from being part of our universe, our nonprofit with the universe. And Wikispor is intended to help facilitate that. I wanted to just share some of the, so Wikispor got started actually at Wikimedia in some respects, so we had a picnic in 2019 in New York as part of the sort of strategy developments. And one of the topics of discussion were about how to start small things with experimental things, experimental premises, and also how to work with different communities that might not have conventional reliable sources. So my native wiki is English Wikipedia, and it tends to have the most stringent, along with German Wikipedia, requirements for some reliable sources, more strict rules against things like original research, more strict restrictions against things like oral history. And I felt that there should be a place where people can experiment with things like oral history, not in a careless way, but in a careful way. And Wikispor is meant for that. We were able to get some support from the Wikimedia Foundation at actually the last in person Wikimedia in 2019 in Sweden, where they agreed to host it on the Wikimedia cloud services, which is a place where that hosts all sorts of volunteer developed projects. You can see we have a page on Wikispor on meta, where there's our official proposal, and of course you can support it you're welcome to support it if you like. Oh, that's I got a very positive support right there. And we of course have the project itself, and I wanted to share the project itself, and some of the philosophy behind it and and how it's been developing. So as part of the philosophy behind it is that what is it for it's a wiki farm for specialized subject areas. So, you know, and also different forms. So it could be, you know, it could be a topical area that is not covered in the other brick media projects, it could also be a new way of presenting it, maybe it's more visual. Maybe it's, maybe it uses a different, a different form, a form. It's a narrative space so it for wiki data topics don't fit within other Wikimedia Foundation wikis. So the idea is that we have one of the inspirations for the sport is wiki data, because there are thousands and millions of wiki data items that do not have, and perhaps can never have under the current system wikipedia pages or other project pages. But our interesting topics that should be written about in more than a data centric format. You know you can say meaningfully things about a topic. Save save example paintings in an art collection. You can't necessarily have them all have pages on wikipedia because of the notability requirement, but you can have, but you can have pages on something like wiki sport. It's a knowledge of positive for different types of knowledge oral and visual we want to be a place where, where oral knowledge can be represented, and a testing ground for new projects. So, I just want to take you live to sport so how do you start to get active on wiki sport how do you do anything here. We have a list of spores, and their sport is just the name it's a botanical metaphor for for these different works and we have different thematic areas so the art sport to have works about art individual artworks for example, that might not fit on on wikipedia, lip sport for works of books publications should all be documented and more than more than you can be insane wiki data. People have explored visual stories. And how they, they might work together. So for example some of the visual story here. I'm sorry says a lot of images here to load about about a hat industry in the Caribbean. I might share. About making industry in carousel. There can also be things like somewhat news news adjacent topics. So for example, here is a, a score page on world, World AIDS Day 2019 and has a sort of an experiment with a detailed explanation of, of what happened, how World AIDS Day was commemorated that there are the cultural developments the legal developments the government developments that happened that year in more detail then could be related in wikipedia article. We also have one of the advantages of this thing is we can use different software. So we use something we have something called cargo, which is a form of page forms that we're able to use documenting some different types of data that's a little bit in between wiki data and and pure media wiki. And there are different developments there. I would also just share. You are welcome to join us in 10 minutes after this, this talk ends, we're having a meeting in the, in the, in the conference where you can talk about wiki sport and all other. All their new project proposals it's called wiki medians, innovating new genres, the wing project. Thank you everyone. I would like to share. Yeah, if anyone wants that you're of course welcome, you can join wiki wiki spore, you can edit it uses. It doesn't have us a wiki media single login but it syncs with your account. And I also invite you to join. We're voting for spore of the month and feature the fortnight and things like that. Thanks everyone. And if people have any questions, I'd be glad to answer them. If not, I'll just share on a philosophical note. That I've been involved with the wiki media projects for quite some time. And, you know, since 2004. And I think there was a certain dynamism in the earlier projects where things could change quickly. Not everything, you know, required things being filled out in triplicate people had new ideas. And when you have a larger community, sometimes you lose some of that dynamism. And I think as a movement, we should invest in newer small communities and they're not all going to work. But I think wiki spore can be a way to do to experiment and to try some new things. And I hope you can support it and I hope we can get some wiki media foundation resources so we can get things like proper use of wiki data on wiki spore. So if anyone would like to join in 10 minutes, we're having the wiki spore plus all other new project proposals gathering in the unconference 10 minutes from now. Thank you.


Hi everyone, Joe for jaspyscasebreaks.com coming at you with a half box break of 2013 Panini Select Baseball. It's one of the mini boxes inside there. This is Ram Team Break 28 with a chance to win two spots in Diamond Icons. We actually have to do just one more. The other half of this box, Break 29, and then we're in Break still because the straight up spot sold out in Diamond Icons. Let's do the break itself first.  All teams are in. Let's roll it. Let's randomize it seven times. One, two, three, four, five, six, and seven in final time. After seven times, we got Oliver down to Dennis. And when we do the randomizer for the giveaway, we'll use the original 15 names. Seven times the teams. After seven times, we've got the Rangers all the way down to the Astros. All right, there you go. That's the first half of the list. Here's the second half of the list. No trade windows, so let's just roll. Let's grid them up, center them up, print this out, bop, bop, bop. You'll also have to figure out which mini box we're going to do in here. Let's bust this open. So on the dice roll, we'll go one, two, three for the left side, four, five, six for the right side. And I'm going to select a Viva Las Vegas one right there. And it's three. So one, two, three for the left side. This is the right side, which we will do hopefully tonight. When this will get posted soon, and this will be, it might be up already, on jaspyscasegrace.com. This sells out diamond icons and allows us to break it. It'll be in Brakesville on that love of Brakesville. That's the best town to be, the best restaurants, the best clubs, the best bars, the best shops are in Brakesville. We've got an old Miami Heat Dallas Mavericks finals game on here. Is that Stackhouse or is it Drake's Stackhouse? Cano, Scherzer, et cetera. It's going to be an expired redemption, but Panini, depending on the player, will either redeem it for you or maybe they'll get you some points back in return, which is what they've been doing lately, which is nice. It's not just gone. There's Zach Wheeler to 750, rookie autograph for the Metropolitans. That's going to go to Bill D'Avrosian. There you go, Bill. There's a Mike Piazza silver that will be for Jacob and my Dodgers. Someone's got to sign Bartolo Cologne. We need to see him in action more often, forever maybe. And then Fuego, Mike Trout. I know his base silvers go for a decent amount on the secondary market. Maybe then Fuego insert will as well. The redemption is Jose Fernandez. Miami Marlins with that one, Adam Richards. Or IP, maybe they have an autograph sitting in their archives or something like that. But they'll likely get you, likely points probably in return. You're not going to be getting that signed, unfortunately. All right, RIP, Jose Fernandez. But we'll still send that to you, Adam Richards. All right, now, the whole point of this. From Kessler down to Walker, let's put all the names. Oh, no, I'm using the original 15 names. That's why I did this beforehand. Let's roll it and randomize it seven times. Lucky seven, top two after seven diamond icons. One, two, three, four, five, six, and seventh and final time. And it's Adam and Jack. There you go. Adam and Jack, you are in diamond icons. You're guaranteed a hit. I don't know what it's going to be. It's going to be a random hit, but you're guaranteed one. One more select break, and we're in breaks following that diamond icon. So go and get it on jaspyscasebreaks.com, and I'll break with you. Break that one with you next time. Bye-bye.


Hello, everyone. Good morning. Good afternoon. Good evening. Wherever you are. I'm Michael waving over from Germany This time virtually And today I want to dive into practical Kubernetes monitoring with Prometheus with you in the next few minutes Before we continue before we start you can reach out to me as DNS Michi on on social media This is DNS and my CHI And without further ado, let's jump into action When it comes to monitoring we probably need to first start understand well We need to change from the traditional host and service objects monitoring We had state-based monitoring with Nario's back then with more like metric names tags volatile container names coming up and other Similarities and needed to understand well micro services and distributed systems need a new approach in monitoring And this is where we want to dive into today like say, okay, we have Kubernetes We have containers microservices and how we can we monitor that changing The ideas changing the knowledge is often times hard But here are a few tips of saying well we have microservices in containers Which can run and run anywhere in the cluster? So you actually don't know the IP address you cannot really say well It's it has an host name which I can ping and say it's okay The other thing is a business process model doesn't work with saying hey two out of three replica sets Means that the state is still okay because this is Different similar to how Kubernetes detects the health state and might be repairing the health state or even Add more resources to the pools in order to ensure that the application is running Because sometimes the service might remain broken from the outside and in the next second It's already fixed again and in a traditional monitoring system. This could be meant flapping between states and generate alerts which is not something which is applicable to Kubernetes and microservices similar to mapping states like like okay warning critically They don't necessarily fit Kubernetes objects and inside the cluster. So forget forget everything You know about this when approaching a Kubernetes monitoring and focus on metrics logs and and everything else which is highly dynamic Now where should be we be starting our monitoring journey? Should we be running premises inside the cluster or outside the cluster? What is needed because well if the Kubernetes cluster goes down and Kubernetes is running inside. We don't have any monitoring The thing is When we need to do external monitoring we might be to need we might need to open up the APIs If we don't have any sidecars and there is a potential for security problems because we also expose certain root access and Other things which are not really made by design. The design is to say hey I want to run premises in the Kubernetes cluster use security policies which are in there communicate with specific API servers and other things and follow the best practices with regards to permissions If I need external monitoring I can install ping probes to monitor the monitor Which I need to do with a traditional monitoring system already Now if we dive into Prometheus and say hey, what is that what? You probably know it already But how can we approach this or combine this with Kubernetes monitoring and getting the big bigger picture is like Prometheus scrapes Endpoints or how to the HTTP endpoints and Collects the metrics from there so at a certain point we need to define the premises targets and one thing which comes into play with Kubernetes is to have service discovery which Prometheus Discovers the targets in Prometheus in in Kubernetes. Sorry using the file service discovery for example and then Automatically adds the script targets to the monitoring post them in a in a in an interval and everything is fine with all the collected data we of course need to define alert rules for sending notifications and alerts and Also query the data with promql from the Prometheus web UI from Grafana form specific other API clients in that regard Now when it comes to querying data keep in mind promql keep practicing this because this really comes in handy with learning Kubernetes monitoring specifically knowing the basics and also using for example prom lands as a As a tool to test the queries now the other thing I mentioned is service discovery and this is like Really using a dynamic list of targets which promissius can then add to the monitoring. This is something to keep in mind to understand how this works with Kubernetes and promissius But let's get into action and say well we want to monitor Kubernetes and what is needed to actually do that and this is where the promissus operator and specifically Q Promissus comes into play which allows to install An entire package or the components in the pack in a package Which you would otherwise install manually by using the operator by using help charts and so on So Q permissus provides the premises or uses the premises operator to install Prometheus in a high availability setup next to the alert manager next to node exporters It also adds a promissus adapter for the Kubernetes metrics API So you don't need the metrics server anymore You also get cube state metrics pre-installed We will see in a bit. What is what it does and Grafana to have dashboards and Fuse available in in addition to that and this is the icing on the cake We get pre-configured cluster monitoring for for Kubernetes meaning to say we have Grafana dashboards and also alerting mix ins pre-installed and can actually make use of that and have the like the five-minute success of I'm deploying the premises operator cube premises and I can start playing I can start Investigating what's going on in my cuban it is cluster in addition to that the Cube premises allows us to dynamically create services carry objects Which is helpful for deploying own applications and adding dynamically The application endpoints or target endpoints for applications less metrics for example Now the installation is pretty straightforward. You just follow the documentation apply the Manifest and wait a bit and then basically everything is fine In order to familiarize yourself with the deployment The first step is to add port forwarding To have the ports available For production environment using ingress controller like nginx or something else in order to expose the HTTP front ends One of the front ends is the premises UI itself, which you can use for basic queries Visualizing the charts and so on so basically testing and inspecting what premises is doing For more advanced user interfaces and dashboards and panels and so on you get grafana pre-installed which which comes with the default password and so on and last but not least We also get the alert manager UI for that very reason and can start or when when we trigger an alert we can Investigate the alert manager UI Now when it comes to specifically monitoring Kubernetes with Prometheus we want to Have something available and the great thing is Q Prometheus provides a long list of grafana dashboards Which we can inspect and and and see what is going on for example the Kubernetes API server The compute resources in the cluster. We can access the cube let we can get the premises over view so seeing the health of the monitor actually and Many many more things which come by default which come out of the box like This is actually like a production view already on the Kubernetes cluster itself So oftentimes it's wise to just use that as a production view and then learn from the queries and from the panels to create your own dashboards and panels in grafana to Monitor the Kubernetes cluster even even further now The other thing which comes to mind is well if I deploy my own application into the cluster I also want to monitor it and this example is a fork from the Prometheus demo service from Julius waltz which basically exposes some synthetic metrics and in order to deploy it by using the deployment and service resources we can actually like run it into the Kubernetes cluster and Later on start monitoring it. So I would totally encourage you to try it out later on Deploy it into the Kubernetes cluster and then monitor the demo service Which basically means we need to create a new see a customer source definition called service monitor and Make Promises aware that there's something new a new service discovered to in that regard and And sure that it takes up the metrics and points Metrics and point and starts monitoring it since there were three replicas sets defined We can see two of two of them already up as a scrape target and one of them is still unknown which means that at a later point we have three targets away level and based on that you can go ahead and create a new Grafana dashboard a panel Selected Prometheus data source search for a specific CPU metric for example and then Use a prom curl query in order to fetch the data and visualize the graph The other thing which you get out of the box with cube Prometheus is container metrics so the cube let's provide an embedded see advisor exporter which comes at the endpoint slash metric slash see advisor and Allows you to monitor the resource usage specific out of memory kills and so on An example is it looks like this So building on that and using that gives you an insight of saying hey, there is a spike There is something which is continuously going wrong And in order to really get an insight into for example specific name spaces Using too many resources The other thing Which we also get out of the box with cube Prometheus is cube state metrics Which queries the Kubernetes API server for specific health states like the deployments denotes the parts we can query the replicas away level and their status and Everything is installed out of the box, which is super helpful to get an insight Without any further manual actions Now this is what we get as the basics so we didn't do anything yet or we didn't modify anything yet This is just out of the box monitoring out of the box it's you install the premises operator and cube Prometheus and You have everything available, but what if we want to customize it? So You promise use is Jason that and you can develop your own rules and dashboards so you can add them You can also monitor other name spaces and I tried this recently to monitor the easy CD But one can contribute name space in our Kubernetes cluster And this is how it looks like to create your own JSON net file modified and then generate the YAML configuration and Deploy that into your Kubernetes cluster again And this is like an ongoing process you You can modify it you can add even more things to it and use Cube premises will really as a basis and add your Customizations on top so you don't need to reinvent the wheel all the time the other thing around More advanced monitoring or what I want to bring to your attention is What else can we do with the monitoring data with the metrics collected and one of the things in the SRE? Handbook from in the SRE book from Google is the foregolden signals of monitoring like what is needed to immediately see what? That something is going wrong with your application and this could be latency. This means traffic This is like errors and also situation of the service and oftentimes you need to think about code instrumentation So actually modifying your code and exposing the metrics for premises to see the HTTP requests To see anything which has been failing and so on and you need to correlate correlate that in order to Immediately see that something is really going off now if you for example want to dive into instrumenting your own applications This is an example for python which I created a while ago for a workshop On the other side I would encourage you to check out all the premises client libraries for ruby for rust for go for Anything which comes to mind and if it's not there look into the existing examples how? To really instrument your application and deploy it and have it monitored Now monitoring and metrics is fine, but what about alerts and escalations as mentioned before the premises alert manager? Comes pre-installed with Qube Qube premises We can use the premises alert rules like the promcal queries and applying a certain threshold and times and so on and Alert manager ensures that there are no duplicated alerts that you prevent Alerts which have been fired already. You can acknowledge and silence specific alerts for a given time You have higher availability way level the transports are email or chat systems everything Which is basically known already is similar Here already The main difference with defining the alert rules is we need a premises rule custom resource definition which wraps the premises rules format and ensures that The alerts for example are being deployed into the Kubernetes cluster into the premises configuration But this seems rather strength straightforward and the link documentation for the premises operator is pretty awesome Now jumping into a Related topic to alerts with SLA SLO and SLI We define a specific service level agreement, which means potentially with customers 99.5% availability our objective is even higher saying hey I want it to be a 99.9 percent available and For achieving that we need certain indicators. So what is hurting our? Our production system. What is the error budget? What indicates that is it errors? Is it latency saturation and so on so when we start thinking about this we kind of Need to also think about SLOs and build our alerting based on SLOs for example now SLOs can be difficult or can be like you write a lot of code you need to Define the prom curl queries this and the alerting rules for the alert manager and so on So it needs a common specification and most recently open SLO was formed To unify that or to define the specification for SLOs so that SLO generators like sloth for example always generate requested format or the defined format and You can also use SLO management pura was announced Most recently which allows you to grab using UI to manage SLOs for premises for example, so you don't need to go into Manually copy pasting stuff in order to manage SLOs for premises and and also for Kubernetes then now SLOs with premises can also be used for for even more things like not only for metrics and alert calculation But also for quality gates When something is deployed into staging and you say hey if the SLO is failing in my staging environment I want to have a quality gate for example with captain and CICD is red and it fails just because the SLO is has failed and I don't want to Deploy any performance regressions for example into production and then debug it at 3 am in the morning and burn out from that So this is one thing to keep in keep in mind. The other thing is I I can can really touch it Would want to like talk talk about it for hours For kid lap comm the SAS platform or as a reason an infrastructure teams have also defined their own metrics catalog, which is Something similar to Jason net and this also gets generated and the great thing about generating all these Things is we generate the alerts the dashboards Which allows us to define the key metrics the thresholds And also add the script and observability tools So when someone is on call and the SLO alert is being fired They can immediately see what is going on and what is needed to fix the problem hopefully so that Production incident can get resolved rather quickly Now last but not least We need to shift from just monitoring to observability Just for the reason we have metrics with Prometheus the exporters the sidecars We have the applications with Metrics instrumentation and also integration outside of Kubernetes But this is probably not enough for running operations in the Surrey And so in that regard we shift into well, let's keep an eye out for logs Maybe we have a central lock management management of way label Probably have either elastic search with beats a sidecars in demon sets without the discovery and keep sorry, keep Anna as a front-end or Using a more lightweight approach with low key and and prong tail and flu and D and then using Grafana as a front-end This is something you need to keep an eye out for and keep and make your mind about it Next to metrics inside your Kubernetes cluster The other thing I want to bring to your attention is traces which should work a little different to logs and allow you to Really get distributed insights into application performance as well And for example, investigate slow queries the tools in that regard are Yeager tracing Grafana Temple and and open telemetry. This is something to check out And also prof profiling continuous profiling providing application performance insights for developers and defining the four pillars of observability in the future Last but not least secure monitoring is a hot topic is needed So you potentially have thought around automation and infrastructure as code and get ops like using the premises operator and cute Prometheus extending it customizing it with Jason net using Infrastructure as code for inventory for service discovery with Terraform and several and and the like and Deployed continuously practice GitOps with monitoring in your Kubernetes cluster The other thing is like security monitoring and security means you want to detect Vulnerabilities before they had production. This not only covers like code vulnerabilities, but also container images security scanning with dependencies and so on and Kubernetes security in a way of cluster image scanning But also ensuring that policies are being applied like the open policy age and cover no policies and speaking of cover no policies I want to bring the Promises exporter and the Grafana dashboards to your attention which allows you to immediately see What policy has been triggered when it failed when someone tried to circumvent it and so on? Which is super helpful for production environments? Now last but not least getting through ideas and some thoughts maybe think about Writing the data from premises outside to Kubernetes like using with remote rights with obstrace and the Grafana agent as an example Look into the GitLab SOE run books on how it's being done check out open telemetry to unify metrics logs and traces and Continue looking into continuous profiling Now the resources which I've which helped me over the past years to change from traditional monitoring To cloud native monitoring with Kubernetes with Prometheus are all linked here Special thanks to Julius for prom labs for the trainings. They are totally awesome I would encourage you to use the exercises in the slide deck to learn even more async and to think about What to prepare what to instrument what to observe and how to iterate on the specific things so like Throwing chaos engineering think about quality gates and optimize everything which is there So you you sleep well at night and everything is Hopefully in good shape and your monitoring is not red Thanks for attention. I'm happy to answer any questions and look forward to seeing you online and hopefully soon in person again


Ahead of Saturday's governorship in the House of Assembly polls, the president of the Church of Brethren, Reverend Joy Beely, his edge Nigerians not to lose hope in the independence National Electoral Commission, INIC, in conducting free and fair elections. The clergy advise all in Sanjeev to troop out to cast a vote for their prepared candidates. We are in the season of elections in Nigeria. Sadly, our election is characterized by thuggery, violence, and manipulations of election processes and results by INIC staff, politicians, and some agents in government. This is not only sad, but an insult to the collective sensibilities of Nigerians. I want to call on Professor Iyakubu and his team to ensure that they do the rising in the first coming Gobernatorial through House of Assembly elections.

India achieved independence in 1947 and with independence, the new country with its ancient civilization inherited problems as vast as her size. The government set about the task of making a democratic nation out of diverse peoples speaking hundreds of different languages. Their religion was one of love, love between husband and wife, love as a means of conquering self, unworldly they were called. But they were united in their patriotism for Mother India, and some of India's harshest problems began to yield. One problem, the most serious, did not. The problem of Muslim versus Hindu, of Pakistan versus India. This week, ECHO looks at the dangers of the confrontation between India and Pakistan. It illustrates the achievements and the problems. The modern city, modern amenities, business life, shops, housing, employment, organization, the rule of law, care for the environment, planning, administration. The old ways of life are coming to terms with the new. Overpopulated still, but India has made headway in controlling a disastrous rise in the birth rate. Modern farmers are taking to new ways. Miracle rice and wheat are beginning to feed the stomachs of a country that contains nearly 15% of the human race. The effects can be seen. Things are better. Street life continues. There is even a little left over for small luxuries. But each country, India and Pakistan, inherited a minority. Muslims in India, Hindus in Pakistan. With our devout, often contradictory, but always unquestioning in their loyalties. The Ganges, the sacred river of the Hindus, contains along its banks the continuing history of Hindu architecture and of Hindu devotion. The devotion is to selfless love and peace. The individual may achieve this. Others have war and hatred brought to them. A new terror has come. West Pakistan, where these refugees come from, rose against the West Pakistani government and declared a separate state, Bangladesh. The supposed domination of a government 1,000 miles away was resented by the East. West Pakistani forces were ordered to take over. Muslim fought Muslim. There were scenes of indescribable brutality. Little mercy was shown. These refugees, old men, the sick, women, children, the dispossessed, fled over the only border that was open to them, into India. They cannot go back. The insurrection in Bangladesh continues. These are highly trained professional soldiers. They wear the uniforms they wore as Pakistani regulars minus the rankings. If captured, they are under automatic sentence of death. They are fighting for Bangladesh. West Pakistan is anxious. Bangladesh guerrillas sank four Pakistani supply vessels in one week. Reports indicate little cooperation from the East Pakistani people. West Pakistan suspects Indian influence, even penetration by spies and agitators. The Pakistani government fears India may try and settle old scores. Kashmir various border clashes by occupying East Pakistan and setting up a puppet Bangladesh regime. Pakistan's President Yaya Khan keeps his eyes on the Indian border. Well, I'm watching it with great patience. And I'm warning the world that if they have any idea of taking a chunk of my territory in East Pakistan and think this is not war, let me warn you and I warn the world that this will mean war, an oral war, which I hate, I don't like. But for the defense of my country, I must then fight an up-all-out war. There will be a war here in West Pakistan. How close are you to war with India? Very near it. In India, support for Bangladesh stems from hopelessness in the face of over 8 million refugees. Calcutta alone accepting a quarter of a million in 48 hours. And the wish by a minority to invade East Pakistan, return the refugees and avoid an almost insuperable problem for India herself. The police manage to retain control and try wherever possible to cool hot tempers. In line with the government's policy of Indian sovereignty and control within her own borders while avoiding provocation to those outside. But if the situation gets out of hand, the Indian army is more than an exercise in skilled horsemanship. This army derives like that of Pakistan from the British army. Like the Pakistanis, it uses the same drill, wears similar uniforms, and it is as well trained and equipped. Should these two forces meet in combat, it will not be with ceremonial pomp. The pent-up anger and frustration of 20-year struggle for national pride and development, the old issues, real or imagined between Hindu and Muslim, Pakistani and Indian, would be likely to produce a spectacular clash which neither country could afford. Wars are more expensive than development. One extended battle can cost the equivalent of a new steel mill. The hard reality is that countries desperately struggling with the economic and social problems of modernization simply cannot afford wars. Civil war in East Pakistan, crisis in the subcontinent. The tension has spread. Allies of the two countries have tried to intervene. The signs have been ominous. Alongside modern technology, however, there remains patience, perseverance, hereditary skill. These old virtues may yet shape a new world. It is difficult to counsel patience to a people who have suffered centuries of poverty, famine, and underdevelopment, both Indian and Pakistani. An outburst of frustration would not be hard to understand. In a situation that has not yet slipped beyond the control of the countries involved, the accumulated wisdom and strength of ancient civilizations may once again retrieve security and peace of mind. The ability to adapt and endure has been proved over thousands of years. This may now be needed, perhaps more than science and technology, in the way that lies ahead.
