DevOps, Scalable Ops & SRE
(Scott Thomson, Google)

Despite the marketing materials, there really isn't any such thing as "no-ops" and "serverless".  There are always ops and always servers.  This talk covers some of Google "scalable ops" tools and Site Reliability Engineering practices.

Scott is a combination digital strategy consultant, digital marketer, CTO, technology strategist/evangelist and developer / amateur hack. He works for Google in customer solutions and innovation in the data platforms group across APAC. Prior to this, he worked with Adobe assisting C-level executives across APAC with digital strategy and digital transformation.  Scott previously held the role of CTO for Qmecom, an Australian startup focused on personalised video advertising for mobiles, and has worked for major organisations, including Telstra and Sensis, delivering digital marketing and digital products.
