DevOps Reno #1: Running your own PaaS app platform

NOTE: This is a fork of the AWS Reno meetup. AWS will still be discussed and still be involved as often as we'd like to discuss it as a group but DevOps Reno exists to discuss all cloud platforms, roles, languages, development stacks, and methodologies.

AGENDA
6:00 Introductions

6:15 What is DevOps?

Quick introduction to DevOps and the topics that it encompasses including monitoring, analytics, continuous delivery, automation, incident management, and more.

6:35 Running your own PaaS application platform: Intro to Dokku and Deis

We will build and discuss how to run your own open source Heroku alternative. Depending on your use cases, this can be a great way to get around limitations of existing PaaS offerings and in many cases, offer a cost savings. There are pros and cons that come with the usual build vs buy discussion.

7:30 Discussion of future topics

This meetup group is yours! What do you want to see? Are you doing something interesting that you can talk about? Even better, something you can show us?
