Two trends were the talk of the conference, both in the talks and during the breaks: First was the shift in focus from the organizational hypergrowth to profitability demonstration.

I am looking forward to share my thoughts on ‘Reinventing Performance Testing’ at the imPACt performance and capacity conference by CMG held on November 7-10, 2016 in La Jolla, CA. – Cloud. I decided to publish a few parts here to see if anything triggers a discussion. – Agile. – Continuous Integration.

GPT-3 is essentially an auto-complete bot whose underlying Machine Learning (ML) model has been trained on vast quantities of text available on the Internet. Second, the free form text formats and protocols that we’re accustomed to may be too informal and error prone for capturing and reporting facts at Internet scale.

I’d been using the Internet since about 1984, for email and newsgroups, sharing files like my white papers via ftp sites, but in the early 1990’s the world wide web came along, and Sun was a very early adopter. I also applied Six Sigma to capacity planning and presented this at a conference in 2003.

Visiting future customers is equally exiting as you get a change to understand their current architecture, if it is a migration, and how they plan to exploit cloud services in their new setup. It is equally important to give customers advice about which applications you think should not move to the cloud or at least not yet.
