41 | | - <strong>Event details:</strong> |
42 | | - <p>This month the Manchester Java Community welcomes Matillion for an evening of technical talks that will provide insights into how they utilise JVM based technologies to power their business.</p> |
| 41 | + <strong>Talk:</strong> |
| 42 | + <p>Tracking a request’s flow across different components in distributed systems is essential. With the rise of microservices, their importance has risen to critical levels. Some proprietary tools for tracking have been used already: Jaeger and Zipkin naturally come to mind.</p> |
43 | 43 |
|
44 | | - <p>We will have 3 separate talks:</p> |
| 44 | + <p>Observability is built on three pillars: logging, metrics, and tracing. OpenTelemetry is a joint effort to bring an open standard to them. Jaeger and Zipkin joined the effort so that they are now OpenTelemetry compatible.</p> |

|
46 | | - <p><strong>Upgrading our flagship product from Java 8 to Java 17</strong> - What we learned from applying 9 1/2 years of version updates in one go.</p> |
47 | | - <p>By: Alasdair MacGruer - Staff Engineer<br />Interloper from the water industry; got fed up of the driving and politics, now trying my hand as a Java dev. Ask me about: water chemistry, chemical engineering, industrial automation, real-time assembly, modern C++, rugby, Dark Souls, cats.</p> |
48 | | - |
49 | | - <p><strong>Delivering connectors at 10x speed</strong> - How we built a Java framework which allows Matillion to deliver connectors faster, including api interfaces for different types of connectors/modules, metadata generation annotation support, connector templating, repository organisation, etc.</p> |
50 | | - <p>By: Zhijun Chen - Senior Staff Engineer<br />Joined Matillion about 9 months ago. I've been working with Java ecosystems for more than 15 years. In my spare time I like hanging out with my kids, building Lego, playing basketball, and etc.</p> |
| 46 | + <p>In this talk, I’ll describe the above in more detail and showcase a (simple) use case to demo how you could benefit from OpenTelemetry in your distributed architecture.</p> |

52 | | - <p><strong>Instrumenting the Data Productivity Cloud</strong> - A look at the role of instrumentation in Matillion’s journey to develop its hybrid SaaS platform</p> |
