Organizations today rely on key applications running on complex multi-cloud environments to transact business and work. A sound log management practice with insightful analytics not only helps ensure those applications are reliable and secure, but it can reduce the “cognitive load” put on engineers by empowering them with efficient troubleshooting in order to resolve and rescue MTTR.
In this session Manas Sharma, product manager, Mike Baldani, product marketing manager at Sumo Logic, and Rachel Stephens, Industry Analyst at RedMonk, will discuss:

-The challenges of managing huge volumes of siloed log data
-Best practices to get accurate log analytics for fast troubleshooting and issue resolution
-How Sumo Logic’s platform empowers engineers to keep applications reliable and secure with less toil.

Speakers:

Better log analytics for less stressed engineers

MARA, the Modern Applications Reference Architecture is a complete Kubernetes-based application deployment that includes observability as a first-class citizen. 

MARA uses Pulumi as an Infrastructure as Code provider and can provision Kubernetes infrastructure to a cloud provider, or use an existing Kubernetes deployment. 

Join us as we discuss the advantages, challenges, and process of adding OpenTelemetry to MARA in a supportable and extensible way. By standardizing on OpenTelemetry for collection, MARA can support any observability platform that supports OpenTelemetry. 

Key Takeaways: 
Modern applications are more than just an application; supporting components are just as important.
Preferring Protocols over Products provides the most flexibility for vendors and operators.

The Journey to Open Telemetry with Sumo Logic & NGINX

In today’s world, customers expect top-notch digital experiences. Apps that are slow, or leak sensitive data, will alienate even the most ardent users.

This session will explore the underlying use cases for shifting security and observability left with two emerging practices, DevSecOps and Observability Driven Design.

Is it ODD to shift left -- Building elite DevSecOps performers

In this session, Senior Directors of Engineering at Sumo Logic Andrea Fumagalli and Michele Zambelli along with SANS Expert Dave Shackleford explain how to build and optimize the top three SOAR use cases, sharing invaluable tried-and-true technical details for solving your needs.

The fastest security response is not always the right one. However, minimizing response time by prioritizing security incidents, reducing false positives, and quickly investigating alerts is imperative for successful cyber defense. Nonetheless, making the best data-driven decision is a challenge for many organizations and MSSPs today.

SOAR does not replace humans but augments them, reducing analyst fatigue and taking full advantage of automation by orchestrating different tools into standard operating procedures (SOPs).

How Reducing the Burden on SREs can Lead to a Healthier Team
Just about every organization today relies on key applications running on complex multi-cloud environments to transact business and enable users to work. While it is critical to ensure that those applications are reliable and secure, there’s also a need to reduce the burden or toil on engineers by filtering out the noise and false positives, so they can focus on the alerts that matter

In this session Mike Baldani, Product Marketing Manager at Sumo Logic, and Nathaniel Welch, Lead Cloud Platform Engineer at Time By Ping will discuss:
The challenges related to managing the toil placed on the engineering team
The possible impacts something like alert fatigue can have on a team
What can be done to help alleviate that burden

How global organizations keep pace with changing regional compliance environments

Abstract:

Global cross-functional compliance teams can’t afford to miss key technical details when evaluating how to meet regional compliance requirements. While monitoring critical data, it’s imperative to detect potential misconfigurations that can impact attestations for PCI, HIPAA, PII, SOC, GDPR, and others. Security teams need to keep a close eye on a wide variety of on-premise and cloud data sources to accelerate compliance readiness and power through the audit season in order to ensure long-term compliance-focused improvements within their secure infrastructure. This talk will focus on a combination of scoping common compliance requirements as well as assessing the areas of affect depending on core business requirements.
