It was great to attend the DevOps Enterprise Summit again this year. The 2015 edition saw more than double the number of attendees of the 2014 conference with presentations from companies all over the world. There is definitely a feeling that DevOps is awakening across the enterprise.
I had the privilege of presenting again on Disney’s Journey,
“Disney DevOps – The Enterprise Awakens.”
