Whooo wee 🎉, have we got news for you. Kosli officially launches on Nov 2nd and what beter way to celebrate than with our friends at ur DevOpsDays Oslo - where we are official sponsors. So if you haven’t grabbed a ticket yet come celebrate with us at Rebel on Nov 2nd. And we’re hosting a special party after the event so don’t miss out.
Setting the stage
In true DevOpsDays fashion, the day will start with some awe-inspiring 30-minute keynotes 🤩 from the main stage before shifting to some open space discussions during the afternoon.
This event is run by some truly awesome volunteers. It’s a super friendly place for exchanging ideas and making DevOps friends. Especially your hot takes in the open sessions. We’re here for them! 🥰
Who’s there?
As Oslo is our home ground, our team will be there on mass to enjoy the talks and bathe in the DevOps culture on offer. We’ll also be on hand to answer any questions you might have about Kosli - and if you are extra nice our tech team will also show you the product in action.
Our very own Ewelina is taking to the stage to chat about moving towards a DevOps culture with ensemble work. Culture is incredibly important for DevOps, probably more important than tools. It is also more difficult to enact. In this talk, Ewelina will share our experience of working with ensemble programming practices at Kosli.
Starting with why we chose this approach to programming and how we ensemble in a fully remote team. Covering the good days and the bad, we will go into details on the challenges and difficulties we faced, how we worked to overcome these, and why many (most?) companies struggle to introduce ensemble work.
And Mike Long our CEO is doing an ignite talk “GitHopes and Terrorforms 😱”: Everything as code! Code all the things! Build, test, deploy, infra, sec - it’s all code. Then we have no problems? Sure! This slapstick comedy in 21 slides shows how githopes and terrorforms have taken hold of our dreams and realities.
