my name is Dennis I work point as a software engineer live in San Francisco okay so we're building a service furnace proxy onra with rust and go and what we're trying to build is a service mesh layer that is able to give you better reliability visibility and security for your micro services in the cloud so the track that I'm really interested in is the programming track mainly because it's dealing with micro services which is that new hotness right now and the space that we're working in we're trying to make sure that whatever we're building makes developers lives easier we're all aware of no technology built we're all aware of technology building things that makes people's lives easier people just being consumers but we're interested in making developers lives easier so that they can build micro services faster and get things quicker interpreter sure today I'm gonna be talking a lot about the JVM and talking a lot about how we've tuned it to work best for linka tea a lot of the things that we discovered when deploying Lickety in production was that the GPM is notorious for taking up a lot of system resources and so our challenge was to try and reduce that footprint in cloud any native environments and my hope today is that people learn how to tune their micro services that are running on the JVM to better use system resources on the cloud efficiently I mean this is my first time and scaled by the base so whatever I can learn I'll learn so I'm gonna try and go to as many talks as I can try and see what people are doing again buoyant and liquidy we really care about what developer developers are doing with the things that they're working on and so learning as much as I can from people just having conversations with people seeing what people are building today is what I'm looking forward to it well my favorite thing anything to do with microservices I pretty much love so any talk that kind of kind of expands on micro-services and kind of shed some light on how people are deploying their services production is what I'm looking forward to there's a particular talk that I'm interested in going to see which is graphic you'll graph QL and which is graph QL and micro services a lot of things that we're trying to do with linka Dee is we're trying to expose api's through graphical graph graph QL and so it'd be really interesting to see what I can learn from that you
