[2018.11 Meetup 10] Sergio Amorim - (A Brief) DevOps History at EDP

DevOps in an enterprise company is not easy, but it is possible! In this talk I’ll present the brief DevOps History at EDP, one of the largest companies in Portugal.

Either in cloud systems or in traditional legacy systems, the path to a DevOps pipeline is inevitable. I’ll take with you through our journey, showing you our path, and what we did to overcome some of the obstacles. Hopefully, after this session, you will know how to avoid our mistakes and replicate our successes.

Sérgio Amorim works in EDP as a DevOps Engineer. He is responsible for the DevOps implementation, changing the way how software is constructed, built, deployed, and operated. With the help of a framework, some tools but mostly through coaching the devops movement is starting to take shape, which will help the DevOps teams produce better software and, in turn, help the business get better value.
