Enterprise Technology Leadership Summit Las Vegas 2024

In a cloud environment, where horizontal and vertical scaling are relatively easy and low frictions, engineers often feel the need to choose between cost and stability. This talk posits that cost versus stability trade off is frequently imaginary. In many situations, stable systems are cost effective systems. Join Cat to explore real world examples of stability yielding cost savings in a cloud environment. These real world examples will also show how to frame engineering decisions in a way that accurately weights cost and stability concerns, amongst others.
