Name: Discussion - the State of DevOps (in person!)
Start: 2025-04-24T19:00:00-04:00
End: 2025-04-24T20:00:00-04:00
Location: Howard County Library, East Columbia Branch

DevOps has come a long way—from CI/CD pipelines to full-blown platform engineering and AI-assisted operations. But as adoption matures, so do the challenges.
This 1-hour meetup brings together experienced DevOps professionals for a **moderated discussion** on where DevOps stands today—and where it’s going next.
We’ll explore:

* **The rise of Platform Engineering** and internal developer portals
* **AI/ML in DevOps**, from code assistance to incident prediction
* **Security as Code** and the realities of implementing DevSecOps
* **Ongoing challenges** like tool sprawl, legacy systems, and culture gaps

No product pitches. No tooling deep-dives. Just strategic discussion, current pain points, and practical takeaways.

*Bonus*: If the group agrees, we’ll publish a short **AI-generated recap video** on YouTube summarizing key takeaways and trends—making it easier to share the insights beyond the room.
Join us to connect, challenge assumptions, and shape the future of DevOps—together.

**Note:** There will be no Meetup in May, but I encourage you all to attend DevopsDays Baltimore on May 20-21!
