Breakout Technical Tracks

Track # 1: by Melissa Binde

Talk title: Google Cloud SRE: When you're not a "Site" Reliability Engineer

Talk brief: Melissa Binde, Director of Google Cloud Platform SRE, talks about the challenges the team has faced doing SRE for enterprise-facing services rather than consumer-facing products.

Track # 2 : by Joel Becker

Talk title: Observation and Failure at Scale

Talk brief: Our modern computing environments are too big for any one person to understand it all.  How can we help engineers observe and reason about the corners of the system they haven't seen recently?  What can we do to prevent information gaps from turning into outages?

Track #3 : by Tim Craig

Talk tite: DiRT: Breaking Google, Before Google Breaks You, and how that helps everyone

Talk brief: What happens when everything goes wrong?  Our answer is that we're already prepared!  We'll explore how Google uses real and simulated disaster scenarios, and culture, to improve resiliencies and celebrate failure to make our staff and systems ready for anything.
