I'm excited to share that my new book, Performance Engineering in Practice, is now available through Manning's Early Access Program! 🎉

For 25 years I've seen the same pattern: performance problems surface after users complain, teams panic, patch, and repeat. I call it the Performance Decay Cycle.

This book is the practical guide to breaking that cycle. First 5 chapters available now with 50% off at launch 🚀

Back in 2017, Yao Yue embarked on an exciting journey, joining a brand new team at #Twitter - Performance Engineering, aka the IOP Team.

This team made waves over the next 5 years: saving Twitter over $100M creating some of the largest data processing jobs owned by infra, driving multiple company-wide initiatives, and releasing multiple open source projects and publications.

Listen to this #InfoQ talk as she reflects on this experience, sharing invaluable insights on effective #PerformanceEngineering: https://bit.ly/49JSLmy

Spoiler alert: it's all about platform building!

Great post from @nelhage on profilers, how memes say you should use them, and how expert performance engineers actually use them.
