Presenters Célian Garcia Source PromCon EU 2025 Level Up Your MS Teams Monitoring with Custom Syntax Highlighting 🚀 Hey everyone! 👋 Let’s talk about making your daily workflow with MS Teams a little smoother – and a lot more visually appealing. I recently heard a fascinating story from a tech conference about a clever workaround for a common monitoring frustration, and I wanted to share it with you. The Problem: PromQL in Teams – A Color Nightmare 😫 We’ve all been there. You’re meticulously crafting a PromQL query to monitor your infrastructure, and you want to share it in MS Teams. But… it’s just a wall of plain text. 🤯 It’s hard to read, difficult to understand, and frankly, not the best way to communicate complex data. The speaker highlighted a significant pain point: sharing large PromQL queries without syntax highlighting is a real headache. It can lead to misinterpretations and wasted time. The speaker noted that Microsoft Teams currently doesn’t natively support Go language syntax highlighting, leading to a frustrating experience when dealing with complex queries. ...

Presenters Attila Szakács Source PromCon EU 2025 Beyond Syslog: Unlock True Observability with Dynamic Logging Metrics 🚀💡 Let’s be honest – logging has come a long way. For decades, Syslog was the king, a reliable workhorse for transporting log data. But as our systems grew more complex, relying solely on Syslog’s basic metrics felt… limiting. It was like trying to understand a city’s traffic flow by only counting the number of cars passing a single point – you missed the bigger picture. 🗺️ ...

This wasn’t a deeply technical presentation, but rather a passionate plea to observe, experiment, and create. The speaker’s core message? Don’t get bogged down in “why” – ask “why not?” Instead, focus on what you enjoy, and then find ways to expose metrics from those passions. 💡 ...

Presenters David Whitney Ian Cooper Hannes Lowette Source GOTO podcast Beyond the Ivory Tower: Redefining Software Architecture for the Real World 🚀 The term “architecture” in software development can feel like a loaded gun, conjuring images of rigid control or, conversely, complete anarchy. But what if we reframed it? What if, instead of a restrictive edifice, architecture was about building systems that can thrive, adapt, and evolve? That’s the exciting conversation we’re diving into today, thanks to insights from David Whitney (Director of Architecture at New Day London) and Ian Cooper (Senior Principal Engineer at Just Eat Takeaway). 💡 ...

Presenters Joe Reis Matt Housley Source GOTO podcast Data Engineering: Navigating the Evolving Landscape with the Fundamentals 🚀 The world of data engineering is a dynamic and often complex space, but at its core, it’s about building the robust foundations for data-driven insights. We’re thrilled to dive into the insights shared during a recent GoTo podcast discussion, which celebrates the 3rd anniversary of the seminal book, “Fundamentals of Data Engineering.” This conversation with the book’s co-authors offers a powerful look at the evolution of data engineering, the impact of AI, and why foundational knowledge remains more critical than ever. ...
