ABSTRACT
-----------------------------------
Operational complexity is growing. Expectations are 
higher - customers expect the systems they depend upon 
to be up 24x7. The environments are more complex - 
there are multiple clouds, on-premises, containers, and 
managed services, and a much faster change rate. And, 
we believe existing operational tooling is inadequate - 
while there are many tools to monitor systems and route 
tickets, there is essentially nothing that 
automatically resolves the issues that arise.

In this talk, we present a new approach to DevOps, 
based upon the principles of feedback control and 
distributed systems. We discuss how one can map DevOps 
to notions of desired state, observed state, errors, 
and control actions.

We then discuss how to apply these notions to a 
software system that can monitor systems 
cost-effectively and take actions quickly and simply 
using techniques from functional programming, 
distributed systems, and query optimization.

-----------------------------------
I grew up in New York City, went to school at Carnegie 
Mellon in Pittsburgh, and have lived and worked in 
Silicon Valley for the past 30 years. I started my 
career as one of 25 people working on the Oracle 
database kernel, followed by three startups in various 
roles, with one IPO and two acquisitions. I then moved 
to AWS, where I ran their database and analytics 
services for 7.5 years. Over that period, we delivered 
a dozen new services and grew revenue a thousand-fold 
to several billion USD. I received over 100 patents and 
the 2019 ACM SIGMOD Systems Award for that work.
 
At the beginning of 2019, I started Shoreline, seeing a 
significant and growing need to reinvent how DevOps is 
done. We're in the midst of formulating a software 
development office in Iasi to help us deliver on our 
vision.
