GlueCon 2013 Notes: Keynote: Ushering in the Bronze Age of Distributed Application Tooling – John Sheehan, Runscope
Keynote: Ushering in the Bronze Age of Distributed Application Tooling – John Sheehan, Runscope Services are the new process Service dependencies are still code dependencies Debugging becomes more difficult and tools are missing Need to debug: code, server, network, API code, API database, API server, API network (plus cloud vendor issues) Code, server, and network are in the control of the developer, but the API is often outside of a developer’s control We need to be able to monitor and mitigate failures of consumed APIs Netflix OSS tools help monitor and debug, since they are service-centric He quit his job and took his experience from Twillio and IFTTT to build a better hammer Built Runscope to help inspect, debug, and test API integrations
Keynote: Ushering in the Bronze Age of Distributed Application Tooling – John Sheehan, Runscope
- Services are the new process
- Service dependencies are still code dependencies
- Debugging becomes more difficult and tools are missing
- Need to debug: code, server, network, API code, API database, API server, API network (plus cloud vendor issues)
- Code, server, and network are in the control of the developer, but the API is often outside of a developer’s control
- We need to be able to monitor and mitigate failures of consumed APIs
- Netflix OSS tools help monitor and debug, since they are service-centric
- He quit his job and took his experience from Twillio and IFTTT to build a better hammer
- Built Runscope to help inspect, debug, and test API integrations
