Presentation: Be Your Own DevOps
How would you like to be able to do cool stuff such as home automation, time-saving scripts at work, while expanding your opportunities pool? It’s all about DevOps and it’s not scary. I promise!
During the last couple of years, I’ve found lots of people who do their best to stay as far as possible from DevOps, most of them doing it because of an innate fear of low-level programming. But I will try to show you that being your own lite DevOps engineer is not as difficult as you might think, nor does it involve a lot of low-level programming. Moreover, it can be fun and rewarding while benefiting you both professionally and out-of-hours.
So let’s take a journey together through the lands of ‘DevOps-ing’, smarty dandy housey thingies and automation.
