Thriving in the cloud: Venturing beyond the 12 factors (English presentation)

Allô, nous recevons Grace Jansen du Royaume Uni pour un atelier / présentation en anglais,

Abstract: Enabling applications to really thrive (and not just survive) in cloud environments can be challenging. The original 12 factor app methodology helped to lay out some of the key characteristics needed for cloud-native applications... but... as our cloud infrastructure and tooling has progressed, so too have these factors. In this workshop we'll dive into the extended and updated 15 factors needed to build cloud native applications that are able to thrive in this environment, and get hands-on with open source technologies and tools (including MicroProfile, Jakarta EE, Open Liberty, OpenJ9, and more!) that can help us achieve this.

PS: it would be great for attendees to bring laptops with them to get hands on with the technologies. However, I’ll also be showing the workshop alongside the attendees doing it too, so attendees could always just watch if they do not wish to bring along their own devices. The labs themselves are hosted in a browser-based environment, so they won’t need any pre-requisites on their own local machines, just a browser (preferably not safari, Firefox or chrome is fine).
