Distributed Tracing | Debugging your Next.js applications with Sentry

Sometimes a simple stack trace won’t provide enough information for you to debug the issue at hand. There are types of issues that require you to know what happened leading up to the exception. In those cases, reach for tracing. Distributed tracing gives you an overview of every operation that happened during the execution of a certain functionality across your whole stack. Aside from being an awesome debugging tool, it also lets you identify any performance bottlenecks in your application. In this video you’ll learn how to view traces in Sentry and implement them in your Next.js application.

npm axios attack - What happened and how to protect your supply chain

100M+ weekly downloads. One compromised maintainer account. A remote access trojan in two active release branches. This is a 30-minute breakdown of the Axios npm supply chain attack – how it happened, why it was hard to detect, and what any engineering team can do right now to reduce exposure. Nigel Douglas, Head of Developer Relations at Cloudsmith, is joined by Jenn Gile, co-founder of Open Source Malware, a community-driven threat intelligence platform focused on malicious open source packages.

90% AI Adoption. Still Failing. DORA Explains Why.

AI adoption is nearly universal. So why are most teams still struggling? In this session from GitKon, Nathen Harvey, head of DORA at Google Cloud, shares findings from the 2025 DORA State of AI-Assisted Software Development report, drawing on data from nearly 5,000 developers worldwide. The answer isn't more AI. It's what surrounds it.

Cost Optimization vs. Value Optimization: Shifting the Mindset

In this session, we explore how organizations can move beyond basic cloud cost reporting to truly understand the business value of their IT investments. Using the T2Bv (Technology-to-Business Value) meta-framework alongside FinOps practices, we explain how to connect IT resources, including Azure environments, to measurable business outcomes.

Your Cloud Architecture Has a Personality - Mastering Cloud Cost Profiles & FinOps

Most teams treat cloud cost like something to clean up later. In reality, it is already baked into how your system behaves. Every workload has a personality. Some spike with concurrency. Some quietly run all day and never shut off. Some look efficient until scale hits and then costs accelerate. And some charge you every time they run, every query, every scan, every execution. This episode is about recognizing those patterns early. Once you understand how your architecture behaves under load and over time, you stop reacting to cost and start shaping it.
