LinuxFest Northwest 2019: Chat Ops - Everything old is new again
Presented by Richard Clark
Chat Bots are nothing new, but the buzzword mill has recycled bot excitement for a new generation. Bots are awesome and Chat provides an easy to develop and deploy user interface for Devops functions (and basically anything).
We will quickly run through a brief overview of the history of chat, and bots, what the new Chat Ops buzz word means, then jump right into the demo thunderdome by creating a simple bot deployed against an open chat room that the audience will be invited into. You will have the opportunity to get access to an instance to make your own bot, all powered by another bot.
If all the technology co-operates, a good time should be had by all, but worst case should have enough supporting slides so that everyone can get started bringing this recycled UI to help with their development teams needs, or whatever other system that a chat based UI could be handy.
