Brandon interviews Coté about what it's like to be a tech evangelist.

Today’s recognized pillars of observability combine metrics, traces, and logs to enable DevOps teams to monitor system and application performance. But, these capabilities provide only limited insights into application performance because they ignore the user’s experience—a critical measure of application performance. Understanding if a system is slow or unavailable from an end user’s perspective is crucial in today’s digital world, even if the metrics are good and there are no alerts. Altogether, the combined functionality of Pingdom, AppOptics, Papertrail, and Loggly brings together real user monitoring, synthetic user monitoring, web and application performance metrics, distributed tracing, event aggregation, and log management to help proactively identify bottlenecks and accelerate troubleshooting. By bringing user experience, metrics, traces, and logs together with an easy-to-use, complementary toolkit, DevOps teams gain unmatched visibility into their cloud environment, so they can seamlessly follow an alert or issue from one product into another to resolve issues quickly and get back to focusing on the more proactive elements of their job. Over 275,000 customers worldwide and 499 of the Fortune 500 trust and rely on SolarWinds for their monitoring software.

Hybrid cloud and kubernetes with Cisco, and the latest beard analysis from the OpenStack community, and some spontaneous ERP and ethics of Facebook meandering - all this week in our power episode! Relevant to your interests Cisco Introduces First Hybrid Kubernetes Platform Support For Amazon EKS (https://www.forbes.com/sites/moorinsights/2018/11/08/cisco-introduces-first-hybrid-kubernetes-platform-support-for-amazon-eks/#426d8894cf62) “The Cisco Hybrid Solution for Kubernetes on AWS enables configuration of the Kubernetes-based Cisco Container Platform optimized for ease of deploying applications on Kubernetes across either Cisco-based on-premises infrastructure or the Amazon Elastic Container Service for Kubernetes (Amazon EKS).” I’m pretty sure this (https://blogs.cisco.com/cloud/simplifying-container-orchestration) means Active Directory now works with k8s: AWS and Cisco. https://alln-extcloud-storage.cisco.com/ciscoblogs/5bea023b0b27b.png The style, diction, and tone of this piece is some classic power-marketing, e.g., “first,” “only,” “Enterprises have been forced to make a tradeoff in these choices that they would rather avoid.” Also, notice the “I HAVE BEEN TELLING YOU THIS” side-notes here and there. Cisco’s site on it (https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/products/cloud-systems-management/hybrid-solution-kubernetes-on-aws/index.html), and press release (https://newsroom.cisco.com/press-release-content?type=webcontent&articleId=1952730). Developer value-propin’, from the Cisco PR quote: “Now, developers can use existing investments to build new cloud-scale applications that fuel business innovation.” And, elsewhere (https://blogs.cisco.com/news/accelerate-innovation): “Public clouds provide developers with platforms for rapidly developing and deploying applications, yet most enterprises have their own data centers that house important workloads. That’s why hybrid cloud is a requirement for most enterprises.” Well, at least their straight-up on pricing: “Pricing for software-only subscriptions will start at approximately $65,000 per year for a typical entry-level configuration. On AWS, customers pay $0.20 per hour for each Amazon EKS cluster that they create in addition to the AWS resources (e.g. Amazon EC2 instances or Amazon Elastic Block Store volumes) they create to run Kubernetes worker nodes.” SAP snaps up Qualtrics for $8B days before its expected IPO, will keep Seattle office (https://www.geekwire.com/2018/sap-snaps-qualtrics-8b-days-expected-ipo-will-keep-seattle-office/): “Qualtrics offers software-as-a-service that companies use to measure and manage their reputations with current and prospective customers as well as a similar service for internal use managing employees.” Report: Vista Equity Partners poised to pay $1.9 billion in private-equity deal for Apptio (https://www.geekwire.com/2018/report-vista-equity-partners-poised-pay-1-9-billion-private-equity-deal-apptio/) Report: Amazon picks New York and Northern Virginia for HQ2 (https://www.cnn.com/2018/11/12/tech/amazon-hq2-new-york-virginia/index.html) Google went down after traffic was routed through China and Russia (https://www.engadget.com/2018/11/13/google-outage-rerouted-china-russia/) Amazon Announces New York and Virginia as HQ2 Picks (https://www.nytimes.com/2018/11/13/technology/amazon-hq2-headquarters.html) Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez slams Amazon’s imminent arrival in Queens (https://www.vox.com/policy-and-politics/2018/11/13/18091104/alexandria-ocasio-cortez-amazon-hq-2-queens) OpenStack Expands With New Projects, Canonical’s CEO Is Not Thrilled (https://www.sdxcentral.com/articles/news/openstack-expands-with-new-projects-canonicals-ceo-is-not-thrilled-about-it/2018/11/?utm_source=feedblitz&utm_medium=FeedBlitzRss&utm_campaign=sdxcentral) Red Hat Squeezes OpenStack, OpenShift Closer Together (https://www.sdxcentral.com/articles/news/red-hat-squeezes-openstack-openshift-closer-together/2018/11/?utm_source=feedblitz&utm_medium=FeedBlitzRss&utm_campaign=sdxcentral) OpenStack expands focus beyond the IaaS cloud (https://www.zdnet.com/article/openstack-expands-focus-beyond-the-iaas-cloud/#ftag=RSSbaffb68) The Foundation keeps on the plan of expanding its portfolio.
