ABSTRACT OF THE TALK

Making complicated things simple is a prime objective of technology. In addition to technical challenges there is an interfacing challenge. At Section we're automating all dimensions of hosting containerized workloads and solving the "location challenge" is one aspect of this. Making it simple to get the locations you want evokes many trade-offs and can collide with past habits that may no longer be suitable.

KEY TAKE-AWAYS FROM THE TALK

- Good agile practice and feedback loops is critical.

- "Trust but verify" is a good philosophy to keep in mind.

- When developers are your users, there are extra challenges in finding the happy balance.
