The speakers

Pini Reznik - CTO @ Container Solutions - Cloud Native Applications and Post-DevOps

In the last few years DevOps was instrumental in starting the movement towards programmable infrastructure. Infrastructure that can be defined as the part of the normal development process and become a part of the application’s main codebase. But does DevOps gives us enough to address all the challenges related to the containers, microservices and all the developments in the cloud world?

In this talk I will argue that DevOps is just an intermediate step towards building cloud native applications. I will also show ideas for the future of the cloud that we are developing together with Cisco and other partners during our work on http://mantl.io/ and http://ciscoshipped.io/

Bio: Pini has 15+ years of experience in delivering software in Israel and Netherlands.

Felix Hupfeld - Co-Founder @ Quobyte Inc. - What is Software-Defined Storage?

A new buzzword is sweeping over the storage industry: software-defined storage. What is it and which changes in technology are driving it? We look at technology trends behind software-defined storage and show what is possible with a software like the Quobyte Storage System.

Bio: Felix Hupfeld is one of the founders of Quobyte where he works on a data center file system that enables consolidating storage into one horizontal storage infrastructure. Before he spent several years in Google’s storage infrastructure group, co-architected the XtreemFS distributed file system, and contributed to a L4 microkernel-based OS.
