One sunny day a new requirement, segment or idea is introduced mid project and throws budgets and schedules all over the place. How to plan ahead for the unexpected by arming your enterprise with ad-hoc earth moving teams. The unexpected should always be expected: It’s not enough to react to change, you should always be ready to leap forward, embracing opportunities with agile teams ready to mobilize. Burst mode isn’t just inevitable, it’s an opportunity to focus on what matters most and do it right, fast and on budget.
The goal of this short session is to illustrate how developing new features and functions with a reliability mindset ensures smoother, more reliable operations. By integrating reliability into every stage of coding, developers can build systems that are robust, scalable, and resilient in production.
Roy Brihand has extensive experience in software development and operations, leading teams and managing projects for mobile and large Telecom systems. As Co-Founder and CTO of MoovingON, he focuses on providing cloud operation solutions that enhance the performance and reliability of modern cloud environments for clients like eToro, Radware, and IBM.
We have always believed that in order to scale in the cloud, security must be moven into the development lifecycle. That is why we are bringing the trademark precision of Wiz’s cloud security platform to developer environments. Extending our coverage from the first line of code to runtime has already helped our customers in preview transform their AppSec and DevSecOps programs. Now, every other organization can secure their cloud-native applications at every stage of development, protecting their code, CI/CD systems, and infrastructure in one unified platform.
