Innovation Coffee: benchmarking & service migration with Liz Fong-Jones from Honeycomb

Entrepreneur, developer advocate, labor and ethics organizer, Liz Fong-Jones joined us on last week’s episode of Innovation Coffee. We talked about benchmarking and profiling, Honeycomb on AWS, OpenTelemetry and the benefits of open source, how to do service migrations measuring on the go with Honeycomb, and much more (from Eve online to Twitch streaming). 

And let us not forget the demos. Throughout this episode, Liz shared several Honeycomb demos and showed us how to break down the way users experience code in complex and unpredictable environments.
