DevOps - The reluctant change agent's guide
John Clapham, Nokia
Frustrated by myriad obstacles between your code and customers?   Trying to improve efficiency and make the most of your team?  Tired of how long it takes to get things done?  Want to do something about it?  Then like it or not, you're a change agent.  Whether you're a lone voice or have business sponsorship, bringing about change isn't about spewing buzzwords; the art is to be effective, without getting fired.  This talk is a plain speaking guide to bringing change, drawing on practical experiences from DevOps adoption.

Sharing is Caring: How OSS can Help Embed a DevOps Culture
Harm Boertien, Schuberg Philis

The Difference Between DevOps and Continuous Delivery
Adriaan de Jonge, Principal Consultant at Xebia in The Netherlands.

Both DevOps and Continuous Delivery are popular buzzwords in IT. Some people claim that DevOps and Continuous Delivery are basically the same thing. Software vendors are eager to use both terms to sell their products. However, although DevOps and Continuous Delivery are related, they are not exactly the same thing. What do you get when you do Continuous Delivery without DevOps? And what do you get when you do DevOps without Continuous Delivery? How do you make the best out of both? These and other questions are answered in this presentation.

An Introduction To Docker
Pini Reznik, Configuration Management Consultant Ugly Duckling, Netherlands

This talk will explain how Docker and other containers (OS level virtualisation) can help to shorten the software development feedback loop by drastically reducing the overhead involved in deploying new software environments. This will lead to faster build and test execution and significantly simplify standardisation of development and production environments, to allow easier transition to Continuous Delivery.

Orchestration in Meatspace
Niek Bartholomeus, ReQtest

Traditional enterprises typically rely on a lot of orchestration to deploy their software, which makes the whole process slow and error prone. How can we move them to a more autonomous approach, in order to speed up the feedback cycle from idea to production?
