DevOps Porto #3: Containers @ Azure

Welcome to our #3rd meetup about DevOps and its culture, practices and techniques. With Containers at Azure as main topic, this meetup will be hosted by our partner DevScope (https://www.devscope.net/).

Our invited speaker is Pedro Sousa (@psousa75 (https://twitter.com/psousa75)) and in his talk, he will do a brief overview about Azure’s current offerings for Container deployment and orchestration. This talk will include where and how can you start to explore the environments and build a simple DevTest Lab.

Pedro (https://pt.linkedin.com/in/pmsousa) is a long-time IT Systems Engineer who has worked across many practices and disciplines in his career, with a primary focus on Microsoft-based Infrastructure solutions or Mixed-environments. At this point, he’s got 20+ years of experience managing Microsoft-based corporate infrastructure, ranging from 50 user shops all the way up to 1,000+ user organizations.

Currently, he’s a Systems Engineer at DevScope where his work ranges the full Microsoft stack, from On-Prem Services (e.g., Active Directory, Exchange, SharePoint, System Center Virtual Machine Manager) up to Azure (e.g., Virtual Machines, Cloud Services), and solid exposure and knowledge around almost all of the core underlying technologies that support and power the core Microsoft Infrastructure stack (e.g., DNS, DHCP, SQL Server, PowerShell, and so on).

From the infrastructures perspective, he also has knowledge on technology that supports it (e.g., Cisco Systems or HP switching, routers, firewalls and Wireless AP’s).

Previously he has worked 11 years as an IT Trainer (the last ones as a Microsoft Certified Trainer).
