Elevator Pitch
Moving from system administration to being a Jedi of the DevOps order may require some assistance along the way. Luckily Luke and Rey have had some help in the past. In this talk, I will discuss the parallels between the Artoo and Luke relationship with DevRel and community members!
Description
You were in a Universe where technology had practices you knew and understood. You have a job and do it daily but know there’s more to the galaxy than what you’ve experienced already. You can feel it in your bones that the datacenter you’ve been working with forever has the same ol’ same ol’ problems that you spend fixing. You add some droids to improve your situation but their automation doesn’t seem to fix everything because these other droids, they just weren’t built the same. Your manager may have recommended an IG unit to help better eliminate threats, but you just don’t know how to get one hired. Maybe your protocol droid is able to make a lot of the changes to translate problems from one group to another… but be honest, C3P0 still always needs a little help beyond the basics. Documentation is absolutely great, but it’s not always perfect because it can be missing nuance. In this talk, I will explain how one can grow into a Jedi with some help from Artoo.
