8. Why SaaS? Use cases Relationship Summary
9. We want to focus on OUR PRODUCT
11. We must move fast
13. Engineering resources are limited
14. Efficient Ads System Document Classification Site Reliability Engineering High Performance API Server News Crawler Realtime Ranking Algorithm Data Management Platform UI/UX
15. Can we assign excellent engineers to every positions?
16. No, probably
17. The answer is
19. Why SaaS? • Solves specific issues for us • monitoring, alerting, visualising etc... • Less bootstrap process • tiny setup process (a java agent, a chef recipe etc...) • built-in user friendly web Interface • No dedicated person is needed to develop/operate • experts in an area do it well • easy to manage with programable API
20. Why SaaS? Use cases Relationship Summary
22. NewRelic • (Application) Monitoring as a Service • easy setup for popular language (e.g. Java) • add method traces by annotation • trace SQL queries automatically • records deployments
23. Setup for Tomcat • deploy newrelic archives to $CATALINA_HOME • edit newrelic.yml • application name • add -javaagent • $CATALINA_HOME/newrelic/newrelic.jar • add environment if necessary • -Dnewrelic.environment=xxx
24. Customize for each Apps # add method tracer @Trace(metricName="API/yourMethod", dispatcher=true) public Response yourMethod() { ... ... ... } # add custom metric MetricAggregator aggregator = NewRelic.getAgent().getMetricAggregator(); aggregator.recordMetric(key, value); # record exception NewRelic.noticeError(ex);
25. Trace methods & queries
26. Record Deployments
27. from fabric.api run from fabric.decorators import runs_once, parallel @parallel @task def deploy(): do_your_task() notify() @runs_once def notify(): ver = release_version() run("java -jar newrelic.jar deployment --appname=xxxx --revision=%s" % ver) Record deployment by fabric https://docs.newrelic.com/docs/agents/java-agent/instrumentation/recording-deployments-java-agent
28. NewRelic Insights Query to custom metrics via NRQL SmartNews seems top 10 user of Insights
29. What's great? • Developer can monitor their own app by themselves • adding custom tracer, custom metrics • Don't have to prepare profiler for each language • Java, Scala, Ruby, (Golang), etc... • suit for Microservices
31. Datadog • (System) Monitoring as a Service • easy to setup with Chef • 100+ built in integration (AWS, MySQL, Docker...) • correlate metrics with events • tag-based flexible visualization • build your own interactive dashboards
32. Setup dd-agent with Chef # Install cookbook knife cookbook site install datadog # Set Datadog-specific attributes node.default['datadog']['api_key'] = "xxxxxxxxxx" # Add a recipe in your run list "run_list": ["recipe[datadog::dd-agent]"]
33. BTW, What is dd-agent? http://help.datadoghq.com/hc/en-us/articles/203034929-What-is-the-Datadog-Agent-What-resources-does-it-consume-
34. Built-in Integrations
35. Setup MySQL Monitor # Edit conf.d/mysql.yaml instances: - server: localhost user: datadog pass: xxxxxxxx tags: - dbtype:master options: replication: 0
36. Correlate metrics w/ deployment
37. New Relic Integration
38. sum:apache.status_2xx_count{role:web} by {env} EC2 Classic VPC Tag-based flexible visualization
39. http://qiita.com/takus/items/c1d71bfcc231d0c24e0a
40. Migrate from EC2 Classic to VPC with Route53
41. role = web env = classic role = web env = vpc Provision clusters with Chef
42. role = web env = classic role = web env = vpc Aggregate metrics with 'env' tag
43. Check clusters by Host Maps https://www.datadoghq.com/blog/2015/03/introducing-host-maps-know-thy-infrastructure/
44. Build your own dashboards
45. PagerDuty Integration Only pager for related teams (members)
46. What's great? • No dedicated Ops required for system monitoring • chef cookbook & built-in integration • customisable dashboard for each developers • Find the root cause quickly • gather all of metrics/events/alerting at one place • tag-based flexible visualization • correlating metrics & events
48. Chartio • Dashboard as a Service • create beautiful dashboards • provide connectors to various data sources • MySQL, Redshift, Google Analytics, BigQuery, etc... • Presto with Prestogres • non-engineer can create dashboard w/o SQL
50. How to create charts? 1. Build a query to data source (drag & drop / SQL) 2. Modify data (filterɺsortɺadd column) 3. Visualise it (table, pie chart, bar chart)
51. Connecting to Presto https://github.com/treasure-data/prestogres http://docs.treasuredata.com/articles/chartio

54. Categorical Drop down Could you give me the ios's article ranking of bbc.co.uk in UK? e.g. : A request from BizDev team
55. How is the result of a A/B test in California? It seems that iPhone 6's user complaints about new features. Can I compare with the result of each devices? e.g. : A request from client developers Categorical Drop down
56. What's great? • No dedicated SQL Monkey required for visualising • everyone can be SQL Monkey • non-engineer can do by WebUI • Easy to drill down from overview to each users • overall summaries • each OS, country, region, language, etc...
57. c.f. About Our Data Platform https://goo.gl/Rc1uuO http://goo.gl/KL1fpL
59. OneLogin • Identity as a Service • provides single sign on to various SaaS • SAML / Auto complete form with browser extension • non-frustrated 2FA with mobile app

63. Send a Pull Request
64. Send a Pull Request • Wrote a fluentd - datadog integration • only aiming for meeting our requirements • It became an official integration • https://www.datadoghq.com/2015/02/monitor- fluentd-datadog/
65. Hold an User Meetup http://blog.takus.me/2015/02/26/dd-sushi/
66. Gifts from SaaS
67. Discuss products in conferences
68. Discuss products in conferences • Fortunately, I had some chances to attend them • Velocity Conference 2013, 2015 • Amazon re:Invent 2014 • Great time to talk with core developers • learn new services & new features • explain our feature requests by myself • ask their product roadmap
69. New Relic's Service Map
70. Anomaly detection by SumoLogic
71. Future of SaaS • SaaS is becoming hot area in startup • 2014/12/11: NewRelic raised $115M in IPO • 2015/01/29: Datadog raised $31M in Funding • 2015/06/01: SumoLogic raised $80M in Funding • SaaS will evolve rapidly with a large amount of funds? • probably in my opinion
72. Why SaaS? Use cases Relationship Summary
73. SaaS makes life easier • The real world is complex. We have a lot of tasks to do • Professionals solve specific issues in behalf of us • No dedicated engineer is needed for it • We can focus on our own problems
