First techtalk: DTrace
My first techtalk as a SCA, I chose DTrace because I felt really intrigued by its features. Being a highly technical subject I targeted my talk to a potentially interested audience: PhD students, teachers and sysadmins on DAC.
The (semi-catalan) slides I used to present DTrace were heavily based on public resources such as the official BigAdmin page about DTrace and the interesting talk titled "DTrace review" by Bryan Cantrill:
There were nearly 15 people PhD HPC people, really interested on DTrace features for their day to day work, for instance, there were some people from BSC, they seemed to enjoy the talk and were very participative.
In fact, there were people that were interested about specific DTrace topics such as the DTrace FreeBSD port status as well as the polemic Apple DTrace implementation issues.
