About the Resource

Since 2014, IT Revolution has been assembling DevOps Enterprise Summit in the US and UK, a conference for technology leaders of large, complex organizations implementing DevOps principles and practices. The presentations at these events emphasize the evolving business, technical, and architectural practices along with the methods needed to successfully lead widespread change efforts in large organizations. The goal has always been to give leaders the tools and practices they need to develop and deploy software faster and to win in the marketplace. The Spring issue of The DevOps Enterprise Journal invites the practitioners and thought leaders who present at DevOps Enterprise Summit to share their learnings.
