At Neotys PAC 2019 in Chamonix, France, I presented approaches on how to solve this problem by looking at examples from companies such as Intuit, Dynatrace, Google, Netflix, T-Systems and others. You can read my blog supporting my session titled “ Performance as Code: Lets make it a Standard ” on the Neotys PAC blog.
