Session spéciale: Dev à Dev Session spéciale: Dev à Dev
D'un côté il y a des développeur-euses qui veulent promouvoir des services comme Azure Functions, Azure Appservice, Azure Event-Grid afin d'être agile et rapide, de l'autre il faut bien prendre en compte les contraintes de connectivité ou de localisation des données. Et si Kubernetes est un pas dans la bonne direction, il nécessite une montée en compétence de toute l'équipe. Mais est-il possible d'allier ces deux mondes? Pour y répondre, rendez-vous à 14h30 jeudi 26 mai!
