Event Intro
Enhancing the Developer Experience
Unlock developer productivity and user experience with a Kubernetes abstraction layer that enables faster, more secure app design, development, and delivery.
Join VMware Tanzu for a hands-on workshop that abstracts away the individual components in the DevSecOps toolchain and leverage these techniques in building, testing, verifying, deploying, and operating applications.
The Workshop Experience
- Jumpstart app development: Use preconfigured cloud native pattern templates to bootstrap new applications.
- Boost developer velocity: Get a consistent GUI to bring services and APIs together in one management portal.
- Empower developers: Quickly get started with preconfigured templates for cloud native patterns.
- Speed up the path to production and automate app deployment: Secure software supply chains with automated, out-of-the-box app deployment. Modify workshop application and observe the power of the supply chain so you can automatically rebuild, update, and deploy the application.
- Explore Data Services: Discover, curate, consume, and manage backing services across single or multi-cluster environments.
Everyone who attends the event will receive special Tanzu swag and prizes for participating!

Consequences of unacceptable behavior
