Overview
We can learn something from every outage, regardless of whether it comes from a start-up or a hyperscaler like Amazon or Google.
In this webinar, we hear from two reliability experts, Niall Murphy (former head of SRE at Microsoft and Google) and Anurag Gupta (former VP of AWS database and analytic services). This session includes technical lessons learned large outages at Amazon and Google.
