Performance engineering is a key and critical component of development lifecycle and if not done right can impact system usability and adoption. This talk will discuss how to integrate performance engineering into the broader DevOps culture and empower the entire team to practice performance management.

Through DevOps practices we successfully navigated the myriad performance bottlenecks and ended up with a continuous performance engineering culture embraced by the entire team.
