6:15 PM - 6:30 PM: Artem Ervits - Announcements, call for presenters, future events

6:30 PM - 7:15 PM: Dave Wakeman - If you're a developer, your twitter or LinkedIn feeds are probably filled with posts about Cloud Native applications, Microservices, & technologies like Kubernetes & cloud foundry. That's great for new applications, but did you know it can also apply to existing ones? Come join us to talk about Microservices & Kubernetes, & how you can take advantage of them with your existing applications & new ones as well!

Bring your questions & your laptops; you will get the opportunity to deploy your first Microservices application & see a demo of an existing application that has been migrated to Microservices & deployed to Kubernetes.
