DevOps and Industry 4.0

Congress participants will also receive practical knowledge up close in the new DevSession workshop format. For the first time, the program includes the topic of Industry 4.0, to which the congress has dedicated an entire series of lectures.

Internet of Things

The Internet of Things (IoT) with its Industry 4.0 or Smart Home manifestations results in increasingly complex IT projects. In order to implement these successfully, not only programming skills are required, but also the management and handling of complex software projects is a real challenge.

In order to take this development into account, Developer Week has expanded its program offerings around Agile, DevOps and Co. For the first time, there will be a separate series of lectures on the topic of DevOps, and the new track "Project Practice" will highlight the problems frequently encountered in practice in the field of project management.

The opening keynote, "Managing for Happiness," by Jurgen Appelo, will address the topic of teamwork and provide tips on how to create a better working environment, deliver better software products and also achieve faster work processes through happy employees and colleagues.

Freely adapted from Mahatma Gandhi: "Be the change you wish to see", he shows practical solutions in his presentation that listeners can easily implement in their everyday work.

Under the motto "Learning by doing," Developer Week introduces a new format with the so-called DevSessions: Experts will present 20 different topics in a pitch, from which participants can then choose the practical sessions that are most interesting to them.

DevSessions

The DevSessions have a workshop character and are led by experienced experts from the field. This year, Developer Week is also devoting a lot of attention to the trendy topic of Industry 4.0 and has set up an entire track on this topic. On Monday, June 20, interested software developers can update their knowledge of the IoT and learn, for example, how software technology will replace traditional mechanical engineering in the future and which innovation drivers will determine the IoT.
