Course Overview

Most outages involving bandwidth and traffic optimisation are triggered by a change somebody considered routine. Technical debt in traffic optimisation is borrowed against future delivery capacity, at compound interest. They acquire practical criteria for judging when the technology and systems delivery capability is working and when it is only appearing to. It is written for people who have to make bandwidth and traffic optimisation work with the resources they already have. Organisations that document the technology and systems delivery discipline properly resolve disputes about it far more quickly. The version of traffic optimisation described in the manual and the version practised on the floor tend to diverge over time. Every module pairs a short input on bandwidth and traffic optimisation with structured practice on the participant's own material. It treats traffic optimisation as an operating discipline and equips participants to run it as one. The final module sets out how progress on this part of technology and systems delivery will be evidenced six months later.

Expected Learning Outcomes

01

Select indicators that show whether bandwidth and traffic optimisation is improving, and reject those that only look useful.

Measure delivery and reliability of traffic optimisation with indicators teams trust.

03

Apply access control and least privilege throughout bandwidth and traffic optimisation.

04

Structure the service desk and support model for traffic optimisation.

05

Build a register of the risks attaching to bandwidth and traffic optimisation and keep it current.

06

Build incident response for traffic optimisation with defined severity and escalation.

07

Document decisions about bandwidth and traffic optimisation in a form that remains useful after the people change.

01

Bandwidth and traffic optimisation: build, pipeline and release discipline

2 sessions · 8 points

Session 1Setting availability and recovery targets for bandwidth and traffic optimisation honestly

  • Identify single points of dependency in bandwidth and traffic optimisation and reduce them.
  • Inventory third-party dependencies inside traffic optimisation and their update status.
  • Record what was learned when bandwidth and traffic optimisation did not go as planned.
  • Configure alerting on traffic optimisation that reflects what users experience.

Session 2Closing out traffic optimisation and capturing what was learned

  • Review logging on bandwidth and traffic optimisation for coverage and retention.
  • Apply change control to traffic optimisation including emergency changes.
  • Reduce the variation in how bandwidth and traffic optimisation is carried out between teams.
  • Set the review interval for traffic optimisation and who attends.
02

Traffic optimisation: change control and rollback

2 sessions · 8 points

Session 1Reviewing traffic optimisation when nothing has gone wrong

  • Agree what will be standardised in bandwidth and traffic optimisation and what will not.
  • Record the rationale for each significant choice made about traffic optimisation.
  • Check that bandwidth and traffic optimisation still works when volumes rise unexpectedly.
  • Estimate the resource traffic optimisation requires to run as designed.

Session 2What to measure in traffic optimisation and what to ignore

  • Assess the exit route from any cloud or vendor dependency in bandwidth and traffic optimisation.
  • Document the runbook for traffic optimisation to the level a new engineer could use.
  • Run a load test on bandwidth and traffic optimisation at expected peak plus a margin.
  • Agree the smallest change to traffic optimisation that would be visibly useful.
03

Traffic optimisation: architecture and designing for failure

2 sessions · 8 points

Session 1Monitoring traffic optimisation from the user's point of view

  • Confirm every release of bandwidth and traffic optimisation can be rolled back within a defined time.
  • Review access rights on traffic optimisation and remove what is no longer needed.
  • Identify the single points of failure in bandwidth and traffic optimisation.
  • Compare the cost of traffic optimisation with the cost of its absence.

Session 2Running an incident on bandwidth and traffic optimisation calmly

  • Decide what will be stopped to create capacity for bandwidth and traffic optimisation.
  • Establish the boundary of traffic optimisation and record what sits outside it.
  • Confirm the support model and escalation path for bandwidth and traffic optimisation.
  • Benchmark the organisation's traffic optimisation against comparable operations.
04

Traffic optimisation: requirements, targets and service levels

2 sessions · 8 points

Session 1Dependencies and supply chain risk in traffic optimisation

  • Restore a backup of bandwidth and traffic optimisation in a test environment and time it.
  • Verify six months later that changes to traffic optimisation have held.
  • Set out how exceptions to bandwidth and traffic optimisation are requested and approved.
  • Agree the indicators that will show whether traffic optimisation is improving.

Session 2Least privilege in traffic optimisation without blocking the work

  • Record the technical debt in bandwidth and traffic optimisation and schedule repayment.
  • Measure current load on traffic optimisation and project it forward twelve months.
  • Test the failover for bandwidth and traffic optimisation rather than assuming it works.
  • Confirm data retention and deletion rules applied within traffic optimisation.
