It's time for the first meetup after the summer in the ALM/DevOps group!

We kickstart the fall with two sessions, the first one about deploying microservices with Azure Kubernetes Services and VSTS. In the other session we will take a look at what's new in VSTS, and maybe peek a little bit into the future.

Agenda

17:30 Welcome. Lighter meals will be served

18:00 Delivering Microservices with Visual Studio Team Services and Azure Kubernetes Services

Microservices is a popular architecture style these days, and containers are a good fit when it comes to packaging and deploying these microservices.
Kubernetes is the rising star of container orchestration and can be hosted in all cloud platforms as well as on-premise. Microsoft is betting big on Kubernetes and now supports running a managed Kubernetes cluster in Azure, that support easy scaling, upgrading and self-healing of your clusters.

In this session you will learn about how Kubernetes works, how to create a managed Azure Kubernetes cluster and how to build, deploy and monitor your microservice containers using Visual Studio Team Services and Application Insights

19:15 What's new in Visual Studio Team Services

VSTS is constantly changing and getting new features. In the last couple of sprints we have seen a completely new navigation UI previewed, release gates is no generally available, and also a new UI for visualizing the progress of a running release.

We'll summarize the major new feature in VSTS and look a bit into the crystal ball at what's coming.
