Session Abstract

19:00 - Build, run, and scale your Java applications end to end

This presentation will talk about the continuous deployment cloud hosting solution that can scale applications from the smallest projects to those handling millions of visitors. It is ideal for agile software teams because of its unique feature: it can replicate a live production cluster in seconds and create byte-level clones of throwaway dev and staging environments, which makes testing and validation 90% faster.
