Workshop
Tackling Chaos, Resilience & Metrics in the heart of your Application
Speaker's Biography
I am basically an eternal student, because the subject matter is endless. I've always defined myself as a backend developer, but I don't disdain poking around on the other side of the code either. I like to think that 'writing' software is mainly about solving business problems and providing value to the customer, and in this I find DDD patterns a great help. I work as a software engineer at Intrè, a company that espouses this ideology; as a good introvert, I find it difficult to come out of the closet, but I like to get out of my comfort zone to share with others the things I have learnt, so that I can find the right stimuli each time to continue improving. I like to frequent the community world, contributing, when I can, with active proposals. I am co-founder of the DDD Open and Polenta and Deploy communities, and an active member of other communities such as Blazor Developer Italiani. I am an Azure Solution Architect and Azure IoT DeveloperWorkshop Abstract
In a world made of distributed services, where communication among them is a fundamental part of our application's functioning, it is crucial to increase the resilience of our applications. Distributed systems are inherently more complex than monolithic ones. It's difficult to predict all the ways they might fail, just think about the "eight fallacies of distributed systems". Chaos Engineering is a practice that aims to help us improve our systems, teaching us new things about their functioning under pressure conditions. There are several tools that support us in this area, but finally, we have everything available directly in the .NET framework. Let's see how to leverage it.
In this workshop we will get our hands dirty creating an API we will go querying injecting Chaos in the system to see how to insert resilience in our applications
