Microsoft Azure is a great option for organisations looking to host their IT infrastructure in the cloud or as a hybrid partner. While Octopus Deploy is a tool that can help you automate the deployment of your infrastructure and software releases all in one place.
In this talk, we'll cover off the possibilities of using Octopus Deploy to help your developers, release managers, and operations folk deploy and manage their Azure resources.
Automation is key these days, to save time and avoid mistakes.
Bicep is a new Domain Specific Language (DSL) that drastically simplifies the way of writing Infrastructure as Code for the Azure platform.
In this session we'll go over this new language and learn how to get started.
We'll then look at how you can automate the deployment of your infrastructure as code using Octopus Deploy's Runbook capabilities.
DevOps is often something that is advertised and talked about as something only Developers should be doing or can do.
Tools like Octopus Deploy are great for deploying software, but what about the IT Pro? Octopus Deploy has features and functionality that are great for the IT Pro who is working with PowerShell, Az CLI, Azure Bicep, Terraform and beyond.
In this session, we'll take a look at the possibilities of DevOps and what it has to offer the IT Pro. We'll take practical and real world examples and show you how to use Octopus Deploy as an IT Pro and introduce DevOps practices to your enterprise.
In this session, I will show you how to get started with Octopus Deploy. By the end of the session, you’ll be set up to deploy your first project with Octopus.
I will take through:
- How to build infrastructure using runbooks
- How to take an existing application and automate the deployment to Microsoft Azure
- Core concepts from environments, deployment targets, packages, and variables, to deployment processes and releases
Installing software on Windows has always been the journey of Next -> Next -> Next.
That no longer has to be the journey you take though, there is now a healthy ecosystem of Package Managers that can help you.
Join me as I show you the world of Package Management within Windows using Chocolatey and the native Windows Package Manager tools.
I'll take you through both tools and show you how you can use them to install Windows Applications and also keep them up to date without Next -> Next -> Next.
Git can seem like an impenetrable set of command and arguments and with over 160 commands you might be right.
During this talk I'll pack in as many git tips and tricks as possible. Covering off things repository details, branching, merging and command git commands.
Microsoft's cloud platform is called Azure, but what is it? What does it look like? Why should you care?
In this walk through session we'll cover off what the platform is, what it offers and how you can get started with it.
Introductory session

In this session, you will learn why you should become Microsoft Azure Certified, what the different exam paths are and how to prepare for the exam. As well as explaining how to sit the exam at home.
In an ever changing IT industry we are seeing new trends and new ways of working emerge all the time. We often here how the focus is Developer, Developer, Developer, but when you look around Ops is everywhere!
We have DevOps, SecOps, DevSecOps, GitOps, ITOps, and much more. The common theme among them is Ops!
