The second exclusive talk will be delivered by Nick Groenen, who is a Site Reliability Engineer at Castor EDC, which one of the fastest growing scaleup in the Dutch healthcare sector. The company’s cloud-based Electronic Data Capture (EDC) platform makes it possible for medical researchers to collect data without requiring elaborate training or technical skills and it employed EDC Kubernetes for a number of pilots. Groenen will talk about the lessons learned from the pilots and the follow-up steps of this scale-up.
Daniël de Groot, who is the Teamlead for Containers & Kubernetes at True will deliver the third talk. He documented the failures developers face while working with Kubernetes and developed a private beta program for covering this. In his talk, the executive will share the insights gained from the private beta and how they are being employed to create Managed Kubernetes environments.
In addition to the invaluable knowledge one will gain by attending the events and the panel talks, True, the company executing the event, will show off its new Managed Kubernetes service. The organisation will also share insights it gained from the private beta. So, what are you waiting for? Reserve your spot at the event here.
