CEO & Co-Founder @LaunchDarkly
The cultural change of “DevOps” beyond just developers and operations is just at the beginning.
What happens when an entire organization changes from shipping once a year to once a month, then multiple times a month, week or even daily?
How do developers approach a sprint when their code can be live in real time?
How does product management change when features can evolve daily?
How does marketing change when the features of tomorrow can be immediately influenced...

Senior Integration Engineer @Perforce
Like most development teams, it is likely your team has adopted Git to manage code. If your team is large, distributed, or you are trying to combine the work of teams using different Git tools, it is also likely you are experiencing challenges. Challenges of scale, performance, and repository management are common in mid to large development teams.
Perforce Software, an enterprise favorite for securely managing code and large binary files, is inaugurating a new era for large-scale...

Sr Architect @Solace
Microservices may be small in size, but they have huge potential, especially when you pair them with the idea of event-driven architecture (EDA). Today developers are using microservices as the building blocks behind all kinds of cloud and enterprise applications, but most still think microservices = REST, which limits you to polling/reactive interactions.
by Balwinder Kaur
Principal Software Engineer @AppDynamics
As more and more Enterprise Software companies build solutions for the Internet-of-Things market, enterprise software engineers and embedded engineers come together on product teams. While Cloud developers debate issues like horizontal scale and canary deployments, embedded engineers deliberate power budgets and direct memory access. Without conscious effort, the cultural gap can lead to friction, delayed projects and frustration. This talk highlights best practices on how to successfully...
