In software engineering, we strive for all the non-functional requirements (the "ilities" of software) to be of very high quality, all the time, no matter the runtime placement or application architecture of software. However, in practice, as seen in normal COTS software....software quality for non-functional requirements is generally proportional to the number of simultaneous users/connections/parallel executions. Edge compute workloads suffer as a result. You see this in practice with IT Crowd's famous quote: "Have you turned it off and on again?"

Some early next-day thoughts about #DASH2024 in New York City this year: 👌 Logs Workspaces look super promising ☀️ Flex Logs go GA (can't wait for Flex Traces 👀) 💥 On-call (👋 Opsgenie & PagerDuty) 🙈 GitHub is on Datadog (and OpenTelemetry!) 💸 Paypal is on Datadog too! 💜 OpenTelemetry + Datadog are getting closer than ever 🎉 Serverless improvements 🥂 Product Analytics revamp, becoming a proper competitor with products like Amplitude 🤖 Bits AI is being used in more and more products 👏 App Builder (custom UI components you can build yourself into the Datadog UI) is better than ever. 🤯 Live Debugger - merges the concepts of debugging and tracing 🔐 Datadog secures the entire software development cycle My biggest takeaway though is that Datadog is bigger than ever. But they are still developing products at an incredible pace and quality. From a Product perspective, they are hitting the nail on the head over and over again. Datadog releases things as early as possible as "Beta", "Private Beta" etc. This may frustrate users (as early products are immature), but it actually provides incredible opportunities for feedback. A bit of an observation: There are a lot more instances where Datadog goes past this "understanding platform" idea. It's now moving to be able to take action. This can be a slippery slope but I do think in many cases it makes loads of sense. A roundup from Datadog themselves of the keynote:

In this Mob Mentality Show episode, we dive into the journey of Jeff Morgan, a coach in Continuous Delivery (CD) and lean thinking. Known for his role in advocating for CD within companies, Jeff shares how his experiences with software development and his recent shift into the café business have shaped his philosophy on people and just-in-time. This discussion explores how Jeff’s approach to Agile and CD evolved, his journey into Extreme Programming (XP), and how mob programming impacted his perspective on teamwork and Continuous Integration (CI). https://lnkd.in/gaQKVkPa https://lnkd.in/gCvuhEQr **Jeff’s Agile and CD Journey** We start with Jeff’s introduction to Agile, discussing the early days of his career when dev practices didn’t include CD and the impact of adopting CD in high-stakes projects like Y2K. Jeff describes how learning from Thoughtworks influenced his views on XP and CD, and how he became an advocate, eventually taking CD to different organizations. He also shares what it was like discussing with Woody Zuill and Llewellyn Falco and reflects on the transformative role mob programming has played in his career. **From Pairing to Mobbing**   For Jeff, mob programming was not initially appealing, but over time it became his preferred approach for helping teams. We explore how mobbing enhances CI, tightens communication, and fosters collective learning. Jeff explains how mobbing enables "just-in-time" discussions that align teams on what to build and how it allows real-time feedback on other team members’ learning. Jeff also examines the transition from pairing to mobbing, the challenges of mob programming with CI/CD, and why mobbing helps him “get the whole system in the room” for tackling complex problems. **Quality Without QA?**   We dive into the controversial idea of achieving high quality without traditional Quality Assurance (QA). Jeff opens up about years spent wrestling with the role of QA in Agile/CD environments and shares experiments with “test-infected” developers—who took full ownership of quality. He reflects on the pitfalls of relying on “heavyweight” traditional QA processes and automated tests, which often create lean waste, add handoffs, and introduce brittle, flakey tests. Jeff and hosts Austin and Chris discuss whether “shift left” is merely a shift away from QA, the Deming Red Bead experiment’s relevance, and whether there’s a happy journey for QA professionals on CD teams.
