 Posted on 2018-02-28  (Last modified on 2020-02-02)  |  2 minutes  |  230 words  |  Chris Short

All other DevOpsDays events should be put on notice. DevOpsDays Charlotte 2018 set the bar unattainably high for the quality of the venue and speaker line up. It’ll be insanely hard to beat the great folks who spoke in Charlotte this year. Almost every talk was a home run. The Red Ventures facility was also jaw dropping. Also, I don’t think we could have asked for a more inviting and welcoming speaker lounge either. [Read More]

Orchestructure January 2018 Meetup

 Posted on 2018-02-01  (Last modified on 2020-02-02)  |  2 minutes  |  301 words  |  Chris Short

I spoke at the first Orchestructure Meetup of 2018. I have to admit, this is probably the smoothest run Meetup I’ve been a part of for quite some time. That’s not to say other Meetups weren’t well organized. But, Mario, Bob, and Jorge have their poop in a group. Orchestructure is one great Meetup. If you’re in Michigan, you’re missing out if you haven’t attended. DevOps'ish is on hiatus and is not taking new subscribers at this time. [Read More]
