Red Hat Summit 2019: Cloud-native Application Development Labs Roadmap


Red Hat Summit 2019 is rocking Boston, MA from May 7-9th in the Boston Convention and Exhibition Center.

Everything you need to know about the current state of open source enterprise ready software can be found at this event. From customers talking about their experiences leveraging open source in their solutions, to the creators of open source technologies you're using, and all the way down to hands-on lab experiences on these technologies.

This hands-on appeal is what this series of articles is about. It's interesting to take a tour, so starting with this article let's examine a series of instructor-led labs based on a specific theme.

This week it's a roadmap to cloud-native application development content.

Grace Hooper Celebration 2019 - Empowering a Career in Open

Later this year, from 2-4 Oct in Orlando, Florida is the Grace Hooper Celebration 2019.

As they say on the site, "Grace Hopper Celebration is the world's largest gathering of women technologists."

I've always admired this conference from afar, and have been a bit unsure if I should submit a session. It's often been an issue of not really having something specific to the theme of this conference, but now I do.

I've been tuning a topic for the better part of two years now and feel that I can tailor it towards helping empower women in open careers.

I've submitted the following session and have my fingers crossed.

Recently I've been updating my free online workshops, specifically the series based on JBoss BPM Suite so that you can get started with the newer Red Hat Process Automation Manager.

In this article I'm sharing something that I've stumbled on while trying to use email notifications in my automation project.

I discovered while updating this project that the email service task, a task type that should allow you to send emails from a process, is not pre-configured out of the box. Not only that, I'm unable to find the solution online for Red Hat Process Automation Manager.

Let's fix that shall we and take a look at what's needed to get our emails flowing in our processes?
