PANEL DISCUSSION + Live Q&A
Present and Future of the Microservice Architecture
When thinking about a microservice architecture there is so much to consider! The topic is broad, and sometimes the expertise needed to understand parts of it are deep. This can make them a pretty daunting subject. Lucking, QCon is at hand!
In the final slot of the microservices track, we'll be bringing together Microservice experts to help give into the complexity. Hosted by Chris Richardson, our panelists include Glenn Engstrand, Hold Cummins, and Dave Farley. The four will be reflecting on topics raised throughout the day in the Microservices track.
