12th DDOG on May 3rd

Our twelfth edition of The Dutch DevOps & GitHub Community will take place on May 3rd at Inspark in Zoetermeer.

What is DDOG

We want to create a community for content related to DevOps and GitHub. We believe GitHub has a lot to offer and deserves a user group in the Netherlands. But we also love the different elements that enable DevOps. So we decided to combine those two into the community you are looking at.
Our goal is to have a platform where we can teach, learn and meet each other.

We are proud to announce our great speakers!

Transitioning Ops to the Cloud, adding Dev skills to the mix

Esther Barthel

This session offers tips and tricks to add core Developer skills to your skillset, so you can transition from (on-premises) Operations to a Cloud DevOps role. This session will zoom in on some basic knowledge and terminology that will make it easier to understand the shift in work and competences for DevOps engineers.
