ATO RTP Meetup – Speaker John Willis
Our February meetup will take a deep and engaging look at the topic of GenAI and it will feature an absolute legend in the DevOps / AI space – John Willis.
We’ll also be giving away a number of one of our favorite books of all time, The DevOps Handbook. John was a co-author of the book and he’ll sign copies for attendees.
Doors will open at 6:00 pm sharp – show up early and network, get a t-shirt/hat/sticker, and grab some pizza and drinks. Live programming begins at 6:30 pm ET with a few announcements, then we’ll turn it over to John.
Food and beverages will be available, as will lots of (cool) free ATO swag.
*Note, this meetup is FREE to attend and participate, as always.
