Stop Infrastructure Delays - Supercharge Your Workloads Now!

Are your developers waiting too long for environments? Do they spend excessive time grappling with infrastructure? In this session from Civo Navigate Europe 2024, Will Stewart, co-founder and CEO North Flank, explains how redirecting focus to workloads allows developers to abstract away the complexities of the underlying infrastructure, enabling them to concentrate on writing code and building features.

Replay Production Traffic to Mock local development environments

Building and debugging Kubernetes microservices can be tough, especially when you don't have realistic data or environments. See how Speedscale can quickly mock DBs and APIs based on observed production behavior, so you can debug and develop features quickly. People familiar with GoReplay will notice a more modern and automated approach to turning user behavior into reproducible developer environments.

How to Load and Performance Test Kubernetes, what is Kubernetes and nuances of the platform

Check out Matt LeRay's talk on How to Test in Kubernetes at Star WEST 2024. Distributed architectures like Kubernetes present unique performance challenges. Autoscaling, Load Balancing and other mechanisms help with resiliency but can also serve to cover up fundamental problems. In this video, learn best practices and high level concepts around Kubernetes and achieving high throughput.

How to get started with a local kubernetes development environment

Mocks can be useful, but hard to build. You can use them as backends for development, or even tests (like load and performance testing). Speedscale takes the legwork out of building mocks, by modeling them after real observed traffic. This video covers a real-world example of how to use mocks to backend a JMeter load test.
