Description:

If your business is delivered via technology (and what business isn't these days?), your success depends on how often, and how safely, you can improve upon the end-user experience.

Join Chef's Adam Jacob and O'Reilly's Courtney Nash as they launch a 6-part series of webcasts that illuminate and explore a new way of doing business. We call it the "Coded Business" or "Business at Web Speed." How quickly you adapt could determine the future of your business.

In this hour you'll learn how & why the continuous delivery of applications and infrastructure is the key to modern customer service. We are literally programming the future of our businesses. If you or your organization aim to succeed (and who doesn't?), you won't want to miss this webcast series.
