About
Traditional load testing often falls short in identifying the nuanced performance challenges that modern, complex applications face. In this webinar, we explore resilience testing techniques that go beyond conventional methods to uncover hidden bottlenecks before they impact users. By rethinking performance evaluation under real-world stress, we aim to equip you with the thought leadership and practical insights needed to build robust, resilient systems.
Participants will gain actionable strategies to integrate resilience testing into everyday performance engineering workflows, transforming reactive troubleshooting into proactive system optimization.

Top reasons to attend include:
- A deeper understanding of why traditional load tests may miss subtle performance issues
- Insights on how resilience testing can preemptively identify hidden bottlenecks
- Practical methods to embed resilience testing into daily performance checks
- Live demonstrations and real-world examples to illustrate effective techniques
- An opportunity to join a discussion on evolving performance engineering practices

Key Takeaways:
Discover how resilience testing uncovers subtle performance issues that traditional load tests often miss.
Learn actionable strategies to seamlessly integrate resilience testing into your regular performance evaluation workflows.
Join a discussion on rethinking performance engineering to build robust, resilient systems.

Matt Schillerstrom
Director of Product Management - Harness
I'm passionate about helping people learn Site Reliability Engineering and DevOps. As an engineer at Target, I discovered my love for product management while building reliable software and high-performing teams. I later helped launch the world's first Failure-as-a-Service product at a SaaS startup. Now, as the Director of Product Management, I blend both worlds to help developers globally ship reliable code and embrace failure as part of innovation. Outside of work, I lead community tech and resilience groups, and volunteer with non-profits.
