First Switzerland GitLab Meetup

Welcome to the first meeting of this brand new group! Join us for an introduction into the basics of GitLab by Michael Friedrich, followed by hands-on exercises on best practices. We will also peek into the power of CI/CD and learn the first steps together with summoning the Go Tanuki. Afterwards we will have a Q&A session.

Michael Friedrich is a Developer Evangelist at GitLab with 15+ years of experience in ops and infrastructure management. He studied Hardware/Software Systems Engineering and moved into a role on DNS and monitoring development at the University of Vienna and ACO.net. Michael was a maintainer of Icinga, an OSS monitoring software, for 11 years before joining GitLab. He loves engaging with new technologies in the Monitoring/Observability, CI/CD and security area and regularly speaks at events and meetups. Current projects involve Prometheus exporters, tracing and pipeline efficiency. Michael hosts a weekly technology coffee chat called “#everyonecancontribute cafe” on everyonecancontribute.com.

For those who aren't be able to attend live or want to watch it again later, this event will be recorded and made available at VSHN's YouTube channel: https://vshn.tv
