Infrastructure & Ops superstream. Distributed computing

Summary: Scaling a distributed system naturally involves adding multiple independently moving parts. We run our software components on multiple machines and our databases across multiple storage nodes, all in the quest to add more processing capacity--meaning solutions are distributed across multiple machines in multiple locations, with each machine processing events concurrently and exchanging messages over a network. This fundamental nature of distributed systems has some profound implications for the way we design, build, and operate our solutions. If you need to manage the complexity that comes with distributed systems, these sessions will help you tackle some of the unique challenges of production with multiple moving parts. About the Infrastructure & Ops Superstream Series: This four-part Superstream series guides you through what you need to know about modernizing your organization's infrastructure and operations, with each event day covering different topics and lasting no more than four hours. They're packed with the expert insights, skills, and tools that will help you effectively manage existing legacy systems while migrating to modern, scalable, cost-effective infrastructures--with no interruption to your business. What you'll learn and how you can apply it See how distributed systems can deliver more value if they operate correctly Explore best practices for communication between distributed systems Understand what distributed systems mean for your company's data Learn how to secure distributed systems This recording of a live event is for you because... You're an engineer who wants to learn more about the challenges of working with distributed systems and find out how to address them. You want to learn how to secure distributed systems. You want to know what the future holds for distributed systems and infrastructure and operations.
