Developer Meetups Series - Getting started on OpenShift 4

Welcome to the DBS Developers Meetup Series - Getting started on OpenShift 4.

As a developer, you want the freedom to build and deploy apps with the tools you want, anywhere, with a single, consistent user experience. Red Hat^® OpenShift^® lets you choose the tooling and frameworks that help you deliver apps quickly and securely. You’ll be able to work collaboratively with your IT Ops team and use the latest technologies without compromising security or agility.

This webinar series comprises 4 sessions specially curated for DBS, starting with an introduction to Red Hat OpenShift 4.6 and Red Hat's vision on hybrid cloud. We'll show you the latest on odo, the command line tool for creating applications on OpenShift. And find out why OpenShift Serverless and Quarkus will make life easier for ops and dev teams alike.
