  1. 3 technical things I wish I had known Christopher MANEU

    Startups Cloud Advocate @ Microsoft @cmaneu
  2. @cmaneu I worked on a diverse range of « startups

    » Bootstraping Series E Intrapreneurship Startups Scale-ups A B C UX Designer DevOps Engineer Mobile Developer Engineering Lead
  3. @cmaneu Metrics for a better product Help people get productive

    Focus on tech relevant for your business
  4. @cmaneu Porting this feature on Windows Phone Needs major rework

    of the Audio player – Can’t do it in a sprint Sprint 1: Genres selection + Artists swipe without music preview Sprint 2: Add Music Preview
  5. @cmaneu Metrics behind this feature Number of artists swiped /

    user > The greater the number is, the better for recomendation Analytics embedded in the API (no work client-side) Reports were not available for platform=windowsphone
  6. @cmaneu Measure things early Not implementing the audio preview made

    the key metric for this feature grow by ~200% After 1 week of launch (post sprint 1), Windows Phone was outperforming ALL mobile platforms on that metric. https://aka.ms/fast/insights

  8. @cmaneu Key metrics ideas • Think about the metrics at

    feature conception stage • Any team member should be able to query/build on top of these metrics
  9. @cmaneu Let’s build our own logging system We can build

    our own deployment engine Sure, I can build the push notification backend We’ll create our own HTTP client library
  10. @cmaneu Which service you’ll not build yourself? • Exceptions Telemtry

    • Logging • Email gateway • SMS / Push notifications gateway • Payment processing • User management • CD/CI agents • DNS Servers • Search • Content moderation • Personalization (if not core business) • SSH Bastions • In-App Chat
  11. @cmaneu Use existing tools, prepare for replacement public interface ITelemetryService

    : INotifyPropertyChanged { void SetUserId(string userId); void TrackPageView(string pageName); void TrackPageView(string pageName, IDictionary<string, string> parameters); void TrackException(Exception ex); void TrackException(Exception ex, string message); void TrackException(Exception ex, string message, bool isFatal); void TrackEvent(string eventName); void TrackEvent(string eventName, IDictionary<string, string> properties); void Trace(string message); void Trace(string format, params object[] arguments); void SendAllData(); } internal sealed class AppInsightsTelemetryService : ITelemetryService { public async void TrackException(Exception ex, string message, bool isFatal) { // For now, all data are not send in an ExceptionTelemetry // We send it also as a custom event Dictionary<string, string> properties = new Dictionary<string, string>(); properties.Add("a.env", _appConfiguration.Environment.ToString()); properties.Add("Type", ex.GetType().ToString()); properties.Add("Message", message); properties.Add("RawException", ex.ToString()); properties.Add("StackTrace", ex.StackTrace); ulong appMemoryUsage = MemoryManager.AppMemoryUsage / 1024 / 1024; ulong appMemoryUsageLimit = MemoryManager.AppMemoryUsageLimit / 1024 / 1024; properties.Add("d.memused", appMemoryUsage.ToString());
  12. @cmaneu Use “off-the-shelf” APIs and services When a document is

    uploaded, categorize it If it’s a picture of someone, check quality If we already have a picture on another document, check if it’s the same person If it’s an official document, get specific fields values for the database When all documents have been uploaded, send a confirmation email
  13. @cmaneu Interesting Azure Services for your Startup • User Management:

    Azure AD B2C • AI: Cognitive Services • Data Exploration: Azure Data Explorer • Data: Hosted MySQL, MariaDB, PostgreSQL, SQL Server, MongoDB (CosmosDB), … • Blockchain: Azure Blockchain Service & Workbench • Static websites: Azure Static Web Apps • Distributed config & secrets: App Configuration & Key Vault • Monitoring: Azure Monitor, Application Insights, … • Maps: Azure Maps, • And a lot more: App Service, API Management, Containers, DNS, CDN, ….
  14. @cmaneu Sometimes, you may need to build things outside your

    business Permanent link to this comic: https://xkcd.com/1205/
  15. @cmaneu Create a dedicated channel Everybody can ask (dumb) questions

    Everyone is invited to answer them If the answer is in a doc, point to the doc Pro-Tip check for answered questions Put them in a KB / in a chatbot !
  16. @cmaneu What a dev needs to know? • Big picture

    • Collaboration • Code • Workflow • Security • Quality • Dependencies • First tasks • Monitoring • Code reviews • Troubleshooting guides • Sharing code • OSS policy • Moonlighting policy • Team schedule • …
  17. @cmaneu Create a contributing.md • Coding conventions • Styleguides •

    Reporting bug/features • Definition of done • Testing • Pull requests rules • How to ask questions
  18. @cmaneu Use new hires to detect improvments • Via a

    « rapport d’étonnement » • Get newly hires to have a 10min presentation about an area of improvement they’ve seen in their first 90 days
