Here's the agenda.
6:30pm - Arrival
7:00pm - Introductions
7:15pm - David Oliver - Taking a legacy application to the cloud
A story of how one team with no previous DevOps experience, took a monolithic legacy java application from tomcat to Kubernetes, what they learned along the way and what their tech lead discovered they take for granted. As well as, looking at the challenges and approaches we took will cover how dev teams need to change and how things are different when it's a top-down imposed direction vs team driven.
David is an Associate at esynergy who has spent the last 20 years helping some of the UK's leading companies build Java-based systems. In the course of that work, he’s discovered there is more to solving problems than writing great software so has invested in developing Agile and DevOps expertise. A closet Clojure fan who occasionally blogs at http://thebrownbagblog.com, out of office hours he’s likely to be found camping, cooking, or falling off a paddleboard.
