Overview

DevOps is all about increasing developer speed and agility. Development teams have freed themselves from the shackles of the traditional tools of the trade and their rigid processes in order to automate across the software delivery lifecycle. DevOps tools need to scale as teams grow and be as highly available as the mission-critical microservices they serve. The continuous delivery of applications requires an automated and scalable platform that can be built with the portability of Docker containers and orchestrated by Kubernetes or Marathon on top of a flexible platform like Mesosphere DC/OS.

Join your peers for an evening filled with food, drinks, and talks on automating DevOps in the age of container orchestration.

During the event, we’ll discuss:

• Challenges of implementing DevOps across the full software development lifecycle, from build to deploy to automated container orchestration and operations using Kubernetes and DC/OS, an elastic, highly available, DevOps solution.

• Deploying and operating CI/CD technologies, like Jenkins, Git, Chef, Ansible, JFrog Artifactory, Docker, Kubernetes, and DC/OS.

• Removing restrictions to development teams and leverage existing toolchains to add the flexibility of running application code, containers, and distributed apps on one platform.
