Reinventing DevOps Practices for Blockchain Applications
SESSION THEME
DevOps
SESSION OVERVIEW
With the arrival of distributed applications that run on Blockchain, it is essential to rethink some of the basic aspects of DevOps. Few things that we take for granted in DevOps area are either irrelevant, impossible or too costly for blockchain applications. This session aims to explore the changes that the blockchain apps bring to the DevOps arena, using a hands-on demo of a sample blockchain apps.
