The Cloud Developer – Generation DevOps
Requirements on developers have shifted over the last 5 years. Team sizes are shrinking but responsibilities are growing with DevOps and accelerated SDLC. A developer must become fluent in software architecture, testing, deployment, telemetry, and even security. It is less about multi-layer and more about multi-discipline.
In this talk, Pete Chestna, CISO of North America for Checkmarx will share updates to the insights that he first shared over 4 years ago. We will discuss how the opportunities and accountability afforded to developers needs better support from employers and the vendor community. There will be practical advice to rise to the challenge.
 

What you will learn:

1. The change in responsibility and ownership that has occurred in application development
2. The gap that exists in the support system that is impacting your velocity
3. What developers and development leaders should do to better enable teams to succeed
