About us
Portland DevOps GroundUp started in February 2015. Our mission is to educate the community about the DevOps Culture. There is a need and desire in the tech community to increase the communication and collaboration efforts between departments in effort to make the software development lifecycle more efficient, effective, and faster without compromising cost or product quality.

PDX DevOps
Reperio, 4784 SE 17th Ave, Suite 120, Portland, OR 97202, Portland, OR, USThis month's session is sponsored by CircleCi, with catering by Elephants and two talks on software delivery and supply chain security.
First Talk Intro:
When OpenVox forked from Puppet, the community inherited a sprawling packaging pipeline publishing dozens of Ruby gems, Java JARs, and C libraries, and until this year, keeping track of updates and security issues was a time-consuming manual process.This year, the OpenVox release team built tooling that generates CycloneDX SBOMs for every release of openvox-agent, openbolt, openvox-server, and openvoxdb. We then put those SBOMs to work generating CVE fix lists for release notes and tracking component changes for the next major version of our packages. I'll cover where we started, how we layered in automation incrementally, the open source tooling we built and published, and what it has actually bought us in security response and compliance with upcoming US and EU regulations. I'll also suggest where to start if you're facing the same problem in your own systems.
About the Speaker:
Charlie Sharpsteen is a fisherman by birth, a civil engineer by training, and an infrastructure engineer by trade. Charlie has been steeped in the Puppet ecosystem for over a decade, where he's earned the reputation as a tenacious problem solver who will put in the extra effort to understand the deeper context rather than just slapping on a bandaid or duct taping together a quick mitigation. He can explain not only how things work, but why they work the way they do.

How AI is changing Software Delivery:
AI is reshaping the inner and outer loops of software delivery. Along with these changes come new bottlenecks and cost creep. New tools and new paradigms are emerging to solve for these new challenges. Ruth and Kami share how some of their customers are keeping pace today.About the Speaker:
Ruth Sasser is a client account exec at CircleCI. She is motivated most by problem solving and relationship building.
Kami Olszewski is the Director of Customer Engineering for CircleCI and former Customer Support manager at Puppet. Her secret power is learning how people like to engage so she can better communicate about the problems they're solving.*****
