Fifth edition of the DevOps Conference starts in June in Berlin

[Software&Support Media GmbH - 10.03.2017] The fifth edition of DevOpsCon will take place from 12 to 15 June at the Maritim proArte Hotel in Berlin. In more than 45 sessions, workshops and keynotes, the latest findings from the areas of Continuous Delivery, Microservices, Container Technologies, Cloud Platforms and Corporate Culture will be discussed with the conference participants.

"Modern DevOps not only brings together development (software developers) and operations (administrators), but also pursues the ambitious goal of integrating business and IT across team and system boundaries. We want to discuss this connection at DevOpsCon with experienced speakers from all over the world" that is how Sebastian Meyen, program coordinator of the DevOps Conference, explains the concept of the conference.

Many national experts such as Dieter Reuter (SEAL Systems AG), Björn Rabenstein (SoundCloud Ltd.), Rainer Stropek (software architects) or Elisabeth Gstarz (EXIN Holding B.V.) have already been won for the conference. Since around 70% of the talks will be in English, there are even more internationally renowned speakers like Mike McGarr (Netflix), Paul Reed (Consultant), Jerome Petazzoni (Docker, Inc.), Alissa Valentina Knight (Brier & Thorn, Inc.) or Simon Wardley (Leading Edge Forum).

The conference begins and ends with a workshop day, in which the participants can choose between a total of six workshops in English and German. Topics of the whole-day workshops are "Deploying and Scaling Containerized Microservices with Docker and Swarm," "Organizational Design for Effective Software Systems," or "Web Hacking: Pentesting and Attacking Web Apps."

The main conference with more than 30 sessions and five keynotes will take place from 13 to 14 June. It will be opened by Simon Wardley's keynote "Crossing the River by feeling the Stones" in which he examines the issue of situational awareness and explains how it applies to the world of DevOps.
During the main conference, renowned companies will present their innovative products and solutions at the Expo Reception. So far the DevOpsCon has won companies like Suse Linux, Chef Software, T-Systems, Elastic or JetBrains as partners.
