Following our successful kick-off event at GPU Computing in October, the second Developer Garden TechTalk will take place in Berlin this month.
The topic of the talk is the DevOps movement, which has set itself the goal of bridging the gap between development and IT operations. Like last time, the event will be held at c-base, the Hackerspace in Berlin Mitte.

The first part of the TechTalk will comprise a fascinating presentation by Schlomo Schapiro, system architect and Open Source evangelist at ImmobilienScout24. The second half will be an opportunity to debate and network while enjoying free drinks and a buffet.

DevOps – eminently practical

DevOps is an IT movement whose goal it is to promote new ways of thinking in Development and Operations. The aims are:

• to create an awareness, amongst developers and administrators, of overriding, common objectives (even where individual sub-objectives and requirements within the two areas appear, at least at first glance, to differ).
• to develop solutions which can improve collaboration between developers and admins and which can spread the core ideas of agile methods to operations.

Schlomo Schapiro, system architect and Open Source evangelist at ImmobilienScout24, will introduce the subject and report on DevOps successes at ImmobilienScout24. After 2 years of agile rethinking in Development, it has been shown that the traditional separation of powers - Plan - Build - Run – is no longer practical because the requirements and expectations in both Development and Operations are continually changing and require new forms of collaboration.

The TechTalk is aimed at employees and managers in IT and web companies who are interested in agile ways of working and cross-functional teams. The presentation will be delivered in German or English. On the day, Schlomo will ask which language those attending prefer.
