[Talk #19] Taming microservices through an evolved DevOps Pipeline

Microservices are a critical part of the overall Cloud-Native journey. They are key to achieving the promise of agility that this modern platform offers. The problem with microservices is that they are a major disruption to how we design, develop and release software. In addition, microservices are often seen as overly complex because of their dynamic nature. This presentation looks at microservice complexities in terms of the DevOps pipeline. Tracy Ragan, CEO DeployHub, will show us areas in the DevOps toolchain that need to evolve to create the DevOps breakthrough required to fully embrace a microservice strategy and achieve the promise of cloud-native.
