Topic:

As the use of containers proliferate, enterprise developers are looking to move to microservices implemented with containers so they can accelerate their development and deliver value faster. With this move comes challenges in building, testing, securing, and managing the services packaged and runing in containers. Come join engineers from IBM, HPE, and Aqua who will share their knowledge on this topic and also discuss open source opportunities that developers can leverage and contribute to!

Woot! An awesome Star Wars Special Edition notebook will be given away during the meetup. Attend and win!
