Why Your Reliability Problems are Really Traffic Problems
‍What are the most common causes of system overload? How do you protect against them?

Join Niall Murphy, CEO at Stanza, and a panel of Traffic experts to learn about the reliability practices of the hyperscalers, and why your organization can also benefit from adopting them. This will be an informative and practical session especially if you are a Site Reliability Engineer, Software Engineer or Engineering Leader looking to build and scale systems with reliability in mind.

Our panelists will delve into:
- Designing systems for resiliency
- The principles of high availability
- Important software resilience patterns
- The most common causes of overload and how to avoid them

Panelists:
- Niall Murphy
- John Truscott Reese
- Tobias Weingartner

Tobias has 12+ years as an SRE at Twitter, DoorDash and Google, coming from a background of Unix System Administration, including at the University of Alberta and Brandon University. He is currently at Google, working on the Traffic Control SRE team, and is part of the GoTips and Go Readability Approver teams. Tobias is also well known as a kernel developer for OpenBSD, and outside of work, he enjoys driving his car on long road trips.

John Reese worked at Google from 2006 to 2021. He was the Tech Lead for Google's Traffic Team for many years, through a 20x+ increase in customer demand, a rapid expansion in edge networking, development of custom network gear, routing, and forwarding technologies, and experimentation with TCP congestion control and HTTP alternatives. He became one of the overall tech leads for Google SRE, before moving to Robinhood to form a new Reliability department there. Today he is a novelist of weird science fiction.

Niall Richard Murphy is an award-winning author, speaker, technologist, and executive leader. He is perhaps best known as the instigator, editor, and co-author of the best-selling and industry-defining Site Reliability Engineering book (O’Reilly), though he feels co-founding Stanza should be a close second.
