Jessi, a technical leader at Itau Unibanco, discusses the distinction between solutions that genuinely solve problems and those that are merely attractive but unnecessary. She emphasizes the importance of identifying specific performance indicators and the need for simplicity in solutions. Performance is framed as delivering the best user experience through efficient application loading and operation, and observability is crucial for understanding system states. The key takeaway is to prioritize essential tools and avoid adding complexity.
Let's start talking about solutions and why. I believe there are two types of solutions: those that solve real problems and those that solve non-existent problems.
When we think about performance, what is performance? Performance is how efficiently your web application or website loads and runs, optimized for speed and smooth operation.
Observability is when we understand the state of our systems from the outside, which helps monitor performance and ultimately enhance user experience.
The solution to problems is not always to add more things; sometimes it's about simplifying or removing unnecessary tools.
