Aberdeen Developers are pleased to present, The Man in the Black Shirt, Donovan Brown, on Thursday 8th June 2017 at the Robert Gordon University.

Zero to DevOps
DevOps is about people, process and products. Getting it all right requires effort but the benefits to your organization and customers can be huge. In this demo-heavy session, Donovan Brown will show you how to go from “zero to DevOps” like a pro. Starting from just a blank desktop, he will create a new team project and a complete pipeline. He will also deploy an ASP.NET MVC application into Azure all live and hands on.
