Pre-Conference Meetup

Ahead of the 'Day of Jenkins' conference on 30th May (
http://www.code-conf.com/doj/doj-gbg/) we'll get together with some of the speakers.

Oleg Nenashev will give a short talk about 'Pipeline as Code in Jenkins. What's hot?'

Almost everybody knows Jenkins… and probably hates its job configuration pages. Although being 10 years old, Jenkins actively adopts modern trends like DevOps and Continuous Delivery. One of the hottest areas is Jenkins Pipeline, which allows describing complex automation flows as code in a Groovy-based DSL.

We will talk about Jenkins Pipeline and its fresh-new features. How does it help to organize automation in your projects? How does it improve the developer experience? What is BlueOcean UI? How to chose between declarative and imperative definitions in DSL? How to scale automation with Pipeline? And finally, does it make sense to migrate and what obstacles to expect?

Robert Sandell will also speak, on the topic of '7 More Habits of Highly Scalable Jenkins Administrators'

Afterwards we'll have a chance to mingle and ask questions.
