FAYA:80 – 35th Edition on 4th May

TechnoparkToday.com>> Coffee@DBG, the platform that brought like-minded technologists together, has been running successfully for the last 35 months. It has built a close-knitted group of technology enthusiasts and has won accolades from all. As part of their strategic expansion, Coffee@DBG has been re branded as FAYA:80 (Read FAYA Port 80) to inculcate a culture of “Community-of-Practice” in a wider angle. The first Faya:80 is on DevOps.

DevOps is more a way of doing things faster in an automated and repeatable manner, than a single tool or a set of tools. DevOps is a practice that emphasises the collaboration and communication of both software developers and other information-technology (IT) professionals while automating the process of software delivery and infrastructure changes. It aims at establishing a culture and environment where building, testing, and releasing software can happen rapidly, frequently, and more reliably.

In this era, technological advances have created a niche for themselves in the IT stratosphere. Newer technologies and related developments are happening at a sky-rocketing pace. Nurturing the power of being empowered in the right technology at the right time is the need of the hour.  FAYA:80 provides a platform for the technocrats to keep at par with the latest tools and technologies in the IT industry. It inculcates a culture of community of practise for the technologists whereby they ignite the art of knowledge gaining and knowledge-sharing.
