DevOps Stage 2024 Talk: DevOps is a Foreign Language (or Why There Are No Junior SREs)
DevOps has a notoriously steep learning curve. Getting started in the field can feel like being dropped in a foreign country without the ability to understand *anything* about the language.
A language is more than just the syntax and semantic rules of the words themselves. It also encompasses the shared culture of the speakers. With the proliferation of programming languages as well as the deeply held cultural beliefs of the community, it's easy to see that learning DevOps is like trying to learn a foreign language.
I will review five foundational hypotheses from the field of Second Language Acquisition and relate these hypotheses back to the world of DevOps. DevOps practitioners, trainers, tool builders, and learners should all come away with useful insights to apply to their practice. Free registration!
Building fast data loops from insert to query response in ClickHouse®
One of the goals of analytic applications is to get insight from newly arriving data as quickly as possible. In this talk we'll trace the path that data follows from ingest into ClickHouse to storage to returning back to users in query responses. We'll show how to make each step of the journey as quick and efficient as possible. You can expect to learn high impact tricks parallel data loading, async insert, fast compression, and query tuning. We'll also show you where to look if they aren't performing. Bring your questions!

JS Conf Chile 2024: Collect, Ingest, Observe: A New Era for (free) JS Monitoring!
Monitoring JavaScript applications might seem like a formidable challenge, but it's time for a change in perspective. This session is set to demystify the complexities of observability, paving a clear and impactful path to proficiency with OpenTelemetry (OTel) alongside a selection of powerful open-source tools (Grafana & ClickHouse).
Prepare to easily navigate the intricate waters of observability, as we guide you through the essentials of collecting comprehensive telemetry data for insightful visibility into your application's performance and health. We'll explore the synergistic power of OTel and the JavaScript ecosystem, further enhanced by other OSS tools and a real-time DB. This combination will ensure you never miss what is happening within your applications, but what is better: it achieves this without wasting thousands (or even millions) of dollars on third-party services.

What’s a Data Lake and What Does It Mean For My Open Source ClickHouse® Stack?
Data lakes on open table formats are emerging as the go-to storage of large datasets for analytics, data science, and AI. This talk explains how data lakes work and how ClickHouse® is integrating them. We’ll introduce the key components of data lakes using a concrete example based on Parquet, Iceberg open table format, and the Iceberg REST catalog. Next we’ll look at new ClickHouse® feature adaptations, exploring specific issues like event stream ingest, compaction, and queries. Finally, we’ll illustrate how to combine ClickHouse® with Apache Spark and Kafka to deliver fast analytics on massive, shared tables. The real-time data lake is arriving and ClickHouse® is going to be a big part of it. Join us and bring your questions!
