I think Ken Sipe’s talk on DC/OS and Shiju’s talk on Microservices was the highlight of the event. Due to some confusion, my talk was not recorded. I gave a demo of FaaS by Alex Ellis, using a custom Twitter function. Thanks to all speakers for sharing their knowledge with us.
From the collected fee we would be giving a gift voucher of INR 1500 each to our speakers. After all the sessions we had a Q & A sessions with the participants as well. Participants who gave the right answer got a t-shirt from DigitalOcean and would be getting a gift voucher from the collected fee as well.
I would like to thank the organizers of different meetup groups Habib, Jasnoor, Aditya, Mohit, Kumar Gaurav, Krishna M, and Madan for coming together for this event. And thanks to the team of Walmart India Deepak, Sunita, Gopal, Nitin and other volunteers. We could not get everyone in the same frame but here is a picture of the team, who made this event possible.
I hope participants learned something new and will look forward to being part of more such events in the future.
