DevOps Enterprise Summit USA 2018 – Viva Las Vegas!

What an incredible five years it has been since the inaugural DevOps Enterprise Summit  (DOES) kicked off in the Bay Area back in 2014. What originally started off as an evolution of CloudBees's user conference, our partnership with Gene Kim and IT Revolution has since vaulted the DevOps Enterprise Summit into THE DevOps event of the year. Now, with an event in Europe in the Summer and an event in the US in the Fall, the DevOps Enterprise Summit continues to grow. This year, the stakes are higher than ever for enterprises of all kinds to expand upon their DevOps journeys and undertake the challenges ahead with the best practices and patterns that the conference highlights. To accommodate the demand from more and more enterprises looking to attend -  as the event grows, we're excited to announce that this year DOES18 is moving to Las Vegas!

 

As the Founding Partner of the conference, we wanted our CloudBees family to get the inside scoop of the happenings as we all prepare for the DOES18 Las Vegas event:
