Date: March 8
Time: 13.00
Length: 45 Minutes
Location: Virtual
Audience: Anyone with the need of drastically changing the way your team is currently working with un-planned work
Technical Understanding: Medium
Presenter: Sebastiaan Laurijsse - Chief Transformation Strategist
Language: this presentation will be held in English
Description: Integrated monitoring across hybrid infrastructure is hard to achieve,
but the alternative is failure. Listen in to this session where you will learn which capabilities that really take your organisation forward. How do you change your way of working from reactive actions based on what has already happened - band aid if you want to use that expression - to proactive efforts mitigating true root causes. Which we call Observability. We might also ask you the somehow uncomfortable question: Do you know what really creates the un-planned activities in your environment?
Pre-requisites: A good seat, a laptop with internet connection and a nice drink.
Date: March 9
Time: 11.00
Length: 45 Minutes
Location: Virtual
Audience: Anyone wondering if they really need to add Observability to their monitoring solutions and how this affects AIOps strategy
Technical Understanding: Medium
Presenter: Ralf Walkenhorst - Senior Business Value Consultant
Language: This presentation will be held in German
Description:
Is ‘observability’ just a disingenuous rebrand of ‘monitoring’? Is it monitoring on steroids? Or, is it the new way to find out why, (and not just if) your system or application isn’t working as expected? Today we see that traditional monitoring approaches can fall short if a system or an application doesn’t adequately externalize its state. To reach ‘observability’, IT needs to correlate many different sources from logs, metrics, traces etc. - and this becomes even more critical (and complex) on distributed systems using containers and microservices.
Join us for this session where we will:
- See how ‘observability’ differs from ‘monitoring’.
- Explore why it is an even bigger challenge in a multi-cloud and containerized world.
- Look at how Splunk can help you gain observability, while shaping the future of IT with machine learning and predictive IT.

If Metrics are your "Do I have a problem?", Traces your "Where is the problem?"
and Logs your "What is causing the problem?" you can nicely combine these into "Detect, Troubleshoot, Root Cause". Join this session to hear more
about the three pillars of Observability, and how you in the quickest way can understand your systems, and why they are acting like they are.

Language: This presentation will be held in English
Description:
83% of organizations are looking for new monitoring approaches to handle today’s cloud and hybrid architectures complexity. IT teams are challenged with monitoring cloud services and mission-critical applications by separate tools which lead to swivel chair approaches, runaway costs, and fragmented operational data getting trapped in siloed tools. This creates blind spots that halt teams’ ability to quickly detect and resolve issues, and negatively impacts customer experiences.
What if there was a way to unify monitoring and investigation across the entire cloud and on-premises stack? Wouldn’t the jobs of architects and system administrators be so much easier if there were consolidated views enabling faster mean-time-to-detect (MTTD) and mean-time-to-resolution (MTTR)? Splunk is helping organizations across the globe accelerate their cloud journey with its analytics-driven, multicloud and hybrid architectures monitoring solution.
What you’ll learn:
- A look-back at monitoring and how far we’ve come
- The new challenges IT is facing today
- What capabilities organizations need to look out for when choosing the right tools
- How to best optimize hybrid and multicloud monitoring
- How Splunk helps organizations tackle this complex challenges
- What is your next action to stay state of the art in monitoring

Description:
2020 has ushered in rapid change in everything we do, from banking and grocery shopping, to working and learning from home. New technologies such as cloud and microservices as well as practices such as DevOps help organizations adapt to these changes. But these new technologies introduce their own challenges, including migration, manageability and more.

Splunk APM provided their customers with the visibility and control they needed to quickly detect and resolve ANY user-impacting issue, reduced time spent on troubleshooting and enabled their customers to devote more time to creating new features. They will provide answers to questions like how is application and infrastructure support changing as teams adopt microservices strategies? What does observability look like in the modern, cloud-native world?
Top reasons to attend:
- Understand why cloud and microservices need a modern approach
- Learn what is Observability and what is required for Observability
