Scenes from LA Ruby Conference - 2010 - Web App Performance Monitoring

Take Away

Bjorn showed New Relic in action with how it monitors web sites and identifies issues early and clearly. Unfortunately my blog entry here fails to capture much of it as it was mostly demo. Worth looking into.

Introduction

Bjorn Freeman-Benson - New Relic

Building the First Successful Human-Powered Airplane

Paul MacCready
1977 - gossamer condor

Why did Paul succeed?

How to make the lightest possible airplane as quickly as possible? Ended up crashing a lot.

Could repair in less than 12 hours. Others crash repairs 6 months.

Macready team could iterate faster.

Applied to Software Development

Presenter wants to be that agile.

How he uses the New Relic to do that.
