We continue to be staggered by the quality of the speakers we’re adding to our lineup for ServerlessConf.
Not only do we have the Donald F Ferguson who led the technical development of Websphere on our agenda, now CTO at a startup called SparqTV, but we also have the woman who wrote the book on Websphere in Noelle LaCharitie, now a Solution Architect & Evangelist with Amazon Alexa.
Chris Anderson & Yochay Kiriaty will be joining us to go through Microsoft’s foray into this area, as they tell us more about Azure Functions.
Austen Collins, an early pioneer in this space with the JAWS Framework, now the Serverless Framework, adds to the already fantastic roster of speakers, as he takes us on a serverless journey.
