GitLab London Meet-up
Kick off the new year and join the GitLab community at their latest London meet-up.
Hear from expert speakers on Self-Service, Internal Developer Portals, and Team Ops. Then hang around afterward for food and refreshments, and chat about your GitLab stories.
In this event we cover:
Gain a deep understanding of how to harness self-service and IDPs for seamless DevOps automation, cloud migration initiatives, and empowering developers within larger organisations, while also leveraging modern tools and techniques that bring all these aspects together to deliver robust, scalable value.
Acquire insights into effectively implementing TeamOps for optimising team dynamics, expediting decision-making, enhancing productivity, and aligning workflows within diverse organisational structures, while learning best practices to transform team relations and achieve holistic operational efficiency.
Join us for an evening of insightful conversations
Are you a Software Developer, DevOps Engineer, Product Manager, Systems Administrator, Security Analyst, or Technical Leader? Are you interested in accomplishing more, increasing your team's output, and removing friction from your day-to-day work?
If you answered yes to any of those questions, then register now for the latest GitLab London Meet-up event!
Developers can do everything - using Self-Service and IDPs for fast flow
The dream of DevOps involves automatic source code management and continuous integration and simple automated deployment pipelines. We want to move to the cloud for scalability and elasticity and to empower developers to choose their own path whilst automating everything they don't need to care about. But does this really work in a larger modern organisation? Can we actually make everything we think developers need self-service? Do we need a developer portal, and how do all these things actually join together to deliver value? Matt will run through the emergent methods and tools people are now using to do this well.
Empowering teams with TeamOps
TeamOps is a performance-centric operational approach designed to optimise team dynamics, streamline decision-making, and enhance organisational productivity. Developed, practised, and refined by GitLab, it’s a framework grounded in actionable principles that transform how teams work and relate. But can this framework successfully integrate into diverse team hierarchies and cultures? Can it be the magic potion that streamlines all operational hierarchies? How does it align with individual team workflows to foster a truly productive atmosphere? Steve will delve into the best practices being implemented to make this dynamic vision a reality.
