DevOps CLE February: Success through Learning and Collaboration
Details
We're back after a long hiatus with another #DevOpsCLE MeetUp!
This meeting will feature seasoned presenter Michael Eaton and be a great opportunity to re-connect, meet, and hangout with like-minded DevOps professionals.
We'll meet in a space built just for meetups like ours (Improving's Event Center in Independence, right off of I-77/Rockside).
## Agenda ##
Doors will open at 5:00pm, and we'll start with some networking and discussion about DevOps in Cleveland while enjoying some food and beverages courtesy of Improving.
Michael's presentation will start around 6:15pm, and afterwards they'll be more general networking right up until doors close (9:00pm).

How Learning and Collaboration Can Bring Success to Your Projects
Siloed teams should be a thing of the past, but even in companies that claim to be doing DevOps or agile, some still have a hard separation between product, development, operations, and even QA teams. These hard lines lead to a "throw it over the wall" mentality and make collaboration difficult, and learning tends to stay within each silo. These companies miss out by simply trying to buy their way to success with tools, processes, and frameworks.
While tools, frameworks, and processes are important, they can't compete with a good, supportive culture of learning and collaboration. In this session, you'll learn how to break down the silos, bring those teams together, and share knowledge which will help you build better software, faster.
