DevOps meets Wall Street at upcoming ‘agile culture’ event in New York
The product studio Modus Create Inc. and the code repository GitHub Inc. will host the first DevOps Wall Street event Friday, March 3, in New York to bring more agile software and services development to finance.
When an industry shifts from traditional development to DevOps it means learning to do things in new ways. This means integrating the practices needed to bring development and operations closer to together by forging more rapid communication and implementing tools that automate development pipelines and operating infrastructure.
To speak to the specific needs of the financial technology industry, Modus Create and GitHub will bring together a number of experts including Andrew Homeyer, founder of Waffle.io; Rob Witoff, director at Coinbase; Matt McCants, DevOps engineer at Modus Create; and Lee Faus, senior solutions architect at GitHub.
Because the financial technology industry must deal with heavy regulation, the DevOps Wall Street event invited Marty Colburn, the former chief technology officer of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority Inc. to keynote. He’s expected to address the rapidly changing landscape of the financial technology industry that is causing the need for quicker turnaround in development cycles. He will also speak to the regulatory concerns and nature of adjusting to better compete in the future.
“Today, every company is a software company,” said Matthew McCullough, GitHub’s director of field services. “From global retailers to large financial institutions, organizations around the world rely heavily on software to drive change and increase the speed of transactions.”
McCollough also mentioned that the financial technology industry could benefit from adopting open-source principles along with DevOps culture to keep up with the changing industry.
GitHub offers its own expertise in having built a flexible, secure developer platform for collaboration and code deployment with its GitHub Enterprise product.
This inaugural event in New York is the beginning of a series of larger events designed to highlight the DevOps cultural shift within the GitHub’s own enterprise ecosystem. The next event will be in the Washington, D.C., area and will focus on the highly regulated government environment. Modus Create intends to bring future events to the Silicon Valley area.
