The Tailor Talks #3 - Building applications for the cloud

The third Tailor Talks is scheduled again! On the 1st of March from 18:00h, we organise an offline evening programme that is fully in English, in Tilburg. It will be a meeting full of inspiring talks and, of course, with an excellent speaker and food (for free)!

Title: Building applications for the cloud
Speaker: Alex Thissen

What is the talk about?

Going to the cloud: it is happening everywhere. You might have taken your first steps and those seemed easy. Cloud is everything it promises to be, or is it?

Building cloud-native applications and running these in production takes much more. In this meetup we will cover cloud architectures for modern applications in two parts. First, you are going to learn what it takes to develop and operate highly scalable, resilient and observable applications. We will use a DevOps mindset to see the moving parts for delivering and releasing cloud solutions. The second part is an open Q&A session, where you can ask everything related to cloud-native architectures and applications.

After this meetup, you will know what you will encounter after the first few steps in the cloud and how to prepare to build for the cloud better, faster and cheaper.
