Atmosphere 2013: "Two Point Oh My!" Wes Mason (Server Density)
With continuous integration, continuous deployment and packaging systems that just install all the latest shiny for us, we don't need to worry about releases any more..do we?
Release engineering is an important aspect of any projects development t and deployment cycle. From testing to building, packaging and releasing, a version number is not just an arbitrary string and relying on one person to understand how your product makes it to customers is a recipe for disaster.
Walk to this way and we'll explore methodologies and tooling for managing releases and solutions to common problems such as:
Dependency tracking and avoiding stale dependencies or security issues without breaking builds.
Documenting builds and release processes for both devs and ops.
Understanding when to automate..and when not.
We would like to thank everyone for attending the first edition of Atmosphere Conference, which was held on the 13th-14th May 2013 in Concordia Design in Poznan. Considering the fact that the event was organised for the first time, we must admit that there was a great number of attendees interested in web scalability and performance. Together with organisers we managed to gather over 200 people. Two tracks of lectures, interviews and thousands of conversations behind the scenes guaranteed a successful conference, which we are proud to be organisers of. We hope that this event has met your expectations and gave you a chance to exchange experience, establish cooperation and meet people with similar interests. The first edition of Atmosphere would not be possible if not a great partners' support. Main Partner was the Allegro Group, which has also helped us create the conference schedule. Gold Sponsors were Akamai Technologies and Cisco Systems, whereas Silver Sponsor was the Dell Company. We would also like to thank our media partners, online services and bloggers who helped us promote the event. Photos, presentations and videos will be available soon on the website. Once again - thank you all for creating the first edition of Atmosphere Conference and see you next year.
