MetLife: Modernising Traditional Applications

Join us to hear about MetLife's modernisation journey, where we will be fortunate to have guest speaker Jeff Murr (Director, MetLife) talking about how container technology at enterprise scale plays a part of MetLife's strategy. MetLife are expanding in Galway, having recently opened new offices. This is a great opportunity to get an insight into how Galway is playing a part in innovation within MetLife.

Jeff Murr is the Director of Container and Open-source Platforms at MetLife, recently speaking on the keynote at DockerCon about MetLife's adoption of containers. Throughout his career he has worked for technology first companies all focused on extreme value and stability for large-scale global, enterprise deployments. For the past 4 years, Jeff has guided MetLife in its transition to cloud-native architectures through key partnerships with Microsoft and Docker. He is currently focused on modernizing legacy infrastructure and applications with IaaS, PaaS, and container strategies aiding in building long-term value-based enterprise roadmaps for MetLife in key technology trends globally.

Following Jeff's talk, we will have refreshments and open spaces discussions.
