LOPUG Meetup on Thursday 14th January, 6.30pm onwards

Happy New Year and welcome back to LOPUG! Our January meetup has some great speakers lined up, as well as the usual drinks, pizza and fun. For this event we've got 2 presentations:

• Jonathan Rudenberg, CTO and co-founder of Flynn

"Introduction to Flynn"

Flynn is a next generation open source Platform as a Service (PaaS). Flynn helps developers and ops teams deploy and manage all kinds of applications and databases reliably at scale. Flynn is designed to transform operators into product teams and free developers to focus on their real work instead of navigating infrastructure.

Join us as we see a demo of the newest version of Flynn from CTO Jonathan Rudenberg who will demo the latest release, explain how Flynn works, what’s new, and how it compares to other infrastructure solutions.

• Dan Young, Innovation & Development Director @ Daisy Group

"People, not Platforms"

If you're a LOPUG regular you're probably at the bleeding edge in terms of the way you work. Many of the things we take for granted in communities like this are alien concepts elsewhere.

What should 'cloud native' mean to everyone else?

What are the some of the key challenges facing an everyday enterprise and how can you begin to lead change in these organisations?

In this talk, Dan will attempt to answer these questions and more.

So if you're interested in hearing from people who are implementing, using and delivering PaaS today then we hope you can make it.

Hope to see you there,

The LOPUG team.
