JCON EUROPE 2023

A barrage of software philosophies have hit the industry over the last few years, all claiming to reduce friction in digital transformation. But what does that mean, how does it impact your design philosophy, and where does open source play into all of this? We'll talk about the roots of DevOps in the Theory of Constraints, how 12-Factor principles can guide your microservice and cloud migration refactor efforts, and how building an optimal strategy for the use of open source within your organization can tie all of these concepts together. Finally, we'll look at the future of DevOps and how Developer Productivity Engineering is evolving to address the next set of bottlenecks, those hiding within the developer experience.

Justin Reock, Chief Evangelist and Field CTO of Gradle, Inc, will take you through a visually-guided tour of modern DevOps and how we came to it, so that you never again have to utter those fallacious and all-to-common words: "There are lots of definitions of DevOps."
