The PlayStation Network, with over 94 million users, was a complex, microservices-linked system that was difficult to manage, distributed among three locations in Tokyo, San Diego and San Francisco. With Datadog's host map and APM, the system can now operate organically together.

In this “Ask the Expert” session we will be talking with Citrix CTP, George Spiers, who will answer your questions around: How can you prove root cause is due to a user's home WIFI, behavior, or an issue within the virtual infrastructure? How do you find root cause of slow logons or poor session performance? And how can you report on remote worker productivity?

A comprehensive CI/CD initiative should include monitoring and observability. Monitoring as code incorporates the active monitoring of the infrastructure under management, creating a symbiotic relationship in which new metrics and failures are collected and detected automatically in response to code changes and new deployments. Monitoring as code is the key to this unified view of the world and management of the entire application lifecycle.

Three phrases keep popping up when talking about modern workflows and development and deployment techniques. We have continuous delivery to automate the complete lifecycle of applications from a commit to a Git repository, all the way until a release is deployable to production. Then we have GitOps to define the desired states of our environments and let the machines handle the converge the actual into the desired state. Finally, there is a lot of focus on different deployment strategies grouped under progressive delivery.

Since the rise of Kubernetes, GitOps workflows have become the standard way for teams to manage the state of large systems. GitOps is a way to perform application management and delivery, which at its core leverages a version control system to maintain the desired state of the system. Being able to describe the desired state using human readable text files, and allowing automation to handle deployments and updates based on those files, means less opportunity for human error and faster deployments.
