Agenda:

12:00 - 12:05 - Intro + Updates

12:05 - 12:20

  • DevOps IL: DevOps in Search of a Better Definition | Yair Etziony, Head of Operations, Polar Squad Germany

It seems that In today's world of software development, almost everyone wants to have DevOps transformation in their organization. However, many of those are failing.

I want to argue that most companies are confusing methodologies and practices, pushing the transformation in the wrong direction. I want to use my experience as a DevOps consultant and as someone who studied history of ideas to define DevOps better.

12:20-12:35

  • Cloud Native & OSS: Building a Cloud Native Product in 2020 | Itiel Shwartz, Komodor

My story about kickstarting a cloud native company in 2020, built from scratch using the latest (and greatest) tools and processes. Some of these include k8s (what else?!), ci/cd, motoring tools, centralized logging, error tracking, etc. While building Komodor, we learned and changed quite a lot. In this talk, I will share some of the good decisions we have taken (go Hasura!), but also about the challenges we faced, what technologies and the processes we decided to ditch, and what lessons we learned during the past year.

12:35-12:50

  • Statscraft: One Metric to Rule them All: Cycle Time | Yishai Beeri CTO, LinearB

If you only measure one metric this is it: Cycle Time. It is probably the most underrated and least understood metric in engineering. Yet this is the metric that comprises the most important aspects to measure in your engineering process. Here’s why.

This talk will focus on how to fine-tune and get Cycle Time right. It’s a mix of improving your planning, interfaces between product and engineering, communication, review and quality gates and release mechanisms, essentially everything your engineering process encompasses. If you can game this metric, then you will realize huge gains for your entire dev process and engineering organization.

12:50 - Q&A and Chit Chat with Community Friends
