CI servers and beyond

Start your day on the right foot with a morning meet-up around CI servers with experts from Eficode and GitLab. And a nice breakfast!

AGENDA

8.30 War of the CI servers by Sofus Albertsen from Eficode

While the market for CI servers is booming, it can be hard to tell the difference between them and choose which one to adopt. Should one choose Jenkins, GitLab CI, or maybe GitHub Actions?

Sofus will highlight the differences and similarities between them and show you the same pipeline built with different CI systems. You'll get 6 practical steps to choose the right CI server for you.

9.00 GitLab CI/CD - a powerful tool in a big toolbox by Martin McVay from GitLab

This session will focus on GitLab being a great tool to use for CI/CD, but there is much more to it than that. We will be taking a look at some of the security features that can be used to tick the "Sec" in DevSecOps, and how GitLab fully embraces shifting security left to help high-performing teams produce better software at the speed they need to.

At the end of the session, you will have a good understanding of GitLab as the single DevOps platform for both CI/CD and a wider range of DevSecOps functions.

9.30 Time for questions and discussions with Martin and Sofus
