Microservices Meet Real-World Projects: Lessons Learned

As consultants, our speakers regularly see both sides of the coin: on the one hand, they get to know the leading-edge technologies that have just become ready for the market. On the other hand, there are customers with conservative operation teams, legacy systems, and strict data security regulations. In this talk, they share some learnings from their consulting gigs, what business domain thinking did to their customers, and why the DevOps mindset changed the team spirit.
