It’s the end of an exciting week at work, and if today is any indication, people are starting to wind down for the year. I’m ok with that. The content keeps coming though, and I read some great items today. See below!
[article] Using Traffic Modeling to Load-Balance Netflix Traffic at Global Scale. Don’t skip this just because you don’t have Netflix-sized routing demands; there’s useful advice here for anyone thinking about resilience and performance.
[article] Why hasn’t LinkedIn moved to Azure? Sometimes, a move just isn’t necessary. Not all of Google runs on Google Cloud, nor does every Microsoft business run on Azure. If you’re already unbelievable at infrastructure and software in your current place, stay put. Snarkier take here.
[docs] Migrate from service account keys. These keys offer an easy way to access cloud services, but can also open you up to security risks. This is a good guide for those planning to migrate to an alternative.
[blog] The Thoughtful HIPPO. Excessive local empowerment is a trap! I think most of us appreciate leadership that sets direction and priority that helps us strategize accordingly.
[blog] Build apps faster with new Duet AI in Google Cloud training content. Releasing the new product itself is only a small part of the story. I’m glad that we also shipped seven training courses for this new AI assistant. Try them out!
[article] Enterprise cloud aspirations hindered by buyer’s remorse. Don’t treat the cloud like someone else’s data center. Use it as an accelerator of technology improvement.
[blog] Open sourcing tools for Google Cloud performance and resource optimization. I like this. Here are some tools for getting bin packing recommendations, install benchmarking tools in Kubernetes, and more.
[article] When it comes to generative AI in the enterprise, CIOs are taking it slow. Very well may be true, but every survey is a trailing indicator. The landscape is changing too fast, and we’re focused on having all the right offerings for whenever the customer is ready to go.
