It's information overload these days - how can a technology professional manage to keep up with everything that is new and exciting in the world of DevOps? What are the best methods for absorbing content and developing skills? Just how useful are podcasts, anyway? Matt, Trevor, and special guest Sasha Rosenbaum discuss these topics and their own personal strategies and challenges with keeping their brains from segfaulting.

Downtown Chicago Azure Meetup - Feb 27, 2013

Angela Dugan of Polaris Solutions and Todd Vernon, CEO & co-founder of VictorOps, join the ADO crew to chat about the challenges of collaborating in a cross-functional team. How can tools help facilitate communication among developers, testers, and operations? What are some of the best practices to keep in mind? And, of course, there just might be some "horror stories" of communication gone horribly wrong.
