o11ycast - Ep. #51, Performance Engineering with Henrik Rexed of Dynatrace

In episode 67 of o11ycast, Martin, Jess, and Liz dive deep on performance engineering. Pulling heavily from Liz’s extensive experience in the field, they share insights on utilizing data to balance resources like developers’ time and infrastructure costs. Listeners can expect to learn helpful lessons on infrastructure optimization, performance data accessibility, and why Honeycomb embraced Kubernetes.

Current Wood Brothers Racing crew chief and longtime Team Penske engineer Miles Stanley joins Davey Segal (5:15) for a wide-ranging conversation that dives into his career in motorsports and background in racing. Stanley discusses the treacherous nature of Texas Motor Speedway, how winning at Las Vegas Motor Speedway has allowed them to take more risks, when that win truly set in and how big winning a race for WBR really is.

Stanley also discusses what he's learned from championship-winning crew chief Todd Gordon, who he worked with for over a decade, how working with all three current Team Penske drivers in some capacity has eased his transition to Josh Berry and the Wood Brothers, why he and Josh seem to be gelling so well so quickly and more.

Plus, how he got started in motorsports with Formula SAE, his football career at Dayton and Akron, how racing engineering proved to be a career path for him, his transition from open wheel to stock cars, working with Robby Gordon Motorsports, why the Dakar Rally was one of the coolest experiences he's ever had, why his work at Penske as Head of Performance Engineering was so gratifying (hint: the last 3 championships in a row), why he doesn't go by his given name and more.

Davey also recaps Joey Logano's win at Texas, previews Kansas and Papa Segal pays homage to Ron Bouchard.

Episode 270: Miles Stanley

On this edition of The Broadband Bunch, we visit with co-founder and COO of Resound Networks, Chadd Giles. As a wireless internet service provider focused on maintaining high standards and consistent service to customers, Resound Networks has quickly drawn the attention of economic development commissions all across portions of the Texas Panhandle and adjacent states. Chadd talks about their explosive growth and how technology often used in the gas and oil industry has made a big impact in pre-deployment testing for eventual permanent tower sites starting with their very first build-out.

Interview with Resound Networks: Covid, Performance Engineering and Economic Development

In this Quality Sense episode, I had a chat with Júlio de Lima, an engineer at Capco, who recently completed his master’s degree in Electrical Engineering and Computing (Artificial Intelligence) and also co-founded GaroaQA, a meetup group with four locations across Brazil and over 2,000 members.

Episode Highlights

- The complexity of analyzing the huge amounts of data that software performance tests provide
- Using machine learning to solve data issues by giving meaningful insights about what happened during test execution
- How he used K-means clustering, a machine learning algorithm, to reduce almost 300,000 records to fewer than 1,000 and still get good insights into load testing results
