App Delivery in a Microservices World

Session abstract:One of the essential elements to making the move to microservices is an effective plan to manage the greater number of pipelines and frequency of deployments that result. Tom Trahan of Shippable will share Shippable's experience as it converted to microservices and improved from weekly deployments to multiple deployments per day, including a demonstration of automated delivery into Triton Elastic Container Service.

Speaker: Tom Trahan VP, Business Development @ Shippable

Bio:In his role at Shippable, Tom has the unique opportunity to dive deep on both the technical and business aspects of CI/CD, DevOps, and modern architectures leveraging containers, and brings a broad perspective on the many companies and options available in the container ecosystem based on his work developing Shippable integration partnerships. With twenty-five years experience in large companies (Microsoft, SAP) and his own software startups, he understands the full spectrum of challenges facing software teams, large and small.

Shippable:Shippable helps software teams easily build, test and deploy Dockerized applications, getting from code to live in record time while integrating seamlessly with container-based technologies such as Joyent Triton Elastic Container Service. Achieve continuous delivery across all of your environments with full visibility, flexible workflows, and one-click rollback.

Casey Bisson: Product Lead @ Joyent

Applications in the movies deploy and scale with the touch of a button, with no concern for cloud infrastructure or even CPU architecture. Is that really science fiction, or have we been doing it wrong all along? What can we learn from sci-fi movies—and the sources that inspired them—about building applications today? Is it possible to build apps that deploy, scale, and self-heal on any infrastructure?

Casey Bisson, Joyent’s Director of Product, will demonstrate how application centric orchestration—the preferred pattern for applications in science fiction—can work in the real world, and how it’s older and more tested than we might think.
