Adopt a painless continuous delivery culture, add more business value
A continuous delivery of new features definitely adds value to the business, it should be effortless for the tech team too. 5 years back our sys-admin team was in Istanbul and the dev team was in Dubai. Even then changes were shipped periodically but the process was cumbersome. A stable delivery pipeline with tests, continuous integration and small atomic deployments with github flow gives us a leading-edge. The culture of logging and monitoring ingrained in our team helps us move fast. Now, we ask a chatbot to deploy our microservices several times a day to production. In this session, I will unveil details on how you can get started with a smooth continuous delivery pipeline one step at a time.
Embrace chatOps, stop installing deployment software
Are you still deploying with capistrano? It is high time to put the chat bots to work. Using chatops to deploy your software gives visibility to all team members. It also gives a consistent interface to deploy. Software Engineers do not need to install any extra software to deploy. Ops is happy because software engineers do not need SSH access to servers anymore. Namshi is a Rocket Internet e-commerce venture in Dubai. At Namshi, we deploy all our apps with chatbots built with hubot. In this session, I will uncover some real life use cases of chat bots at Namshi.
From 0 to working serverless URL for a containerized app
Ever wondered if you could run your web application container on a serverless platform? Wait no further with the Google Cloud Run it can be done without breaking a sweat. You can get from 0 to a working serverless URL for a containerized app in no time.
There is nothing that married the goodness of serverless and the container's ease with amazing developer experience. You can also offload the scaling of your containers to Google Cloud, pretty easily. Cloud run also makes deploying new versions very easy with its web interface and the gcloud CLI. This talk will be a run-through of deploying and running a simple Node.js app on Google Cloud Run in a matter of minutes. Let's unlock the magic of serverless together!
Free GCP credits + a side project (ATJ) = 10+ first full-time tech jobs
In this talk, you will learn about a community that helped 10+ people land their first full-time tech jobs in 3 years using a side project as leverage. The tale started when Geshan Manandhar became a Google Developer Export (GDE) for Google Cloud Platform (GCP) at the end of 2019. Geshan used the first batch of free Google Cloud Platform (GCP) - $500 to start a side project called AU Tech Jobs. The free credit was used to host the project on GCP using Google Cloud Run, Google Cloud Build, and other services like Cloud logging and trace.
Leading the project, Geshan practiced what he preached. He helped lead a side project (read mini start-up) with ChatOps, Continuous Delivery, Microservices, and Serverless containers on Google Cloud Run. The community of mostly international students developed and delivered a running project. Adding the experience gained from the project in their CV as local experience, many of the international students landed their first full-time tech jobs that were not only rewarding but life-changing too.
The talk emphasizes the importance of community over technology, but also how technology can enable helpful and transformative communities. Come and enjoy this heartening real-life story.
You build it, Google runs it (serverlessly) in containers
Focus on your application’s features by running and scaling out containers in a serverless way, managed by Google. Scaling to billions of users is something Google knows very well. You don’t need to know Kubernetes to scale applications on the cloud. Learn how to operate containers on Cloud Run to propel your company ahead even without a DevOps engineer.
In this session, we’ll explore other GCP services like Cloud Build, and Cloud Logging to help you achieve business goals. You’ll gain practical knowledge and useful tips on running most workloads on serverless containers that can scale to zero when there is no traffic.
