Exclusive infrastructure webinar | Friday, March 28 - 12 pm
Event info:
12:00 - 1:00 PM CET
The Thoughtworks Technology Radar has been tracking changes in the technology landscape for over a decade. It is a twice-yearly snapshot of tools, techniques, platforms, languages and frameworks. This knowledge-sharing tool is based on our global teams’ experience and highlights things you may want to explore on your projects.
Our webinars usually give a glimpse into the main highlights of the newest Radar. But this session will deep dive and look beyond the blips (emerging topics that caught our attention). Our focus will be specifically and fully on infrastructure blips that we think should be on your radar!
Why you should attend
Learnings based on real experience: The Radar captures the experiences and learnings from Thoughtworkers based on the work they do on behalf of our clients. As a result, it cuts across technologies, industries and geographies.
No fluff, no filter: We talk about blips that we liked, but we also don't hesitate to highlights experiences that did not work out for us.
True expert knowledge: Valentina Servile, Kief Morris and Erik Dörnenburg - three Thoughtworkers who stand for infrastructure expertise at Thoughtworks - will hand pick blips they consider especially interesting for infrastructure experts.
Who should attend?
Infrastructure engineers, systems administrators, systems engineer, cloud engineer, cloud infrastructure engineers, cloud architects, DevOps engineer, site reliability engineers, infrastructure architects, solutions architects, enterprise architects, IT security engineers and anyone who is interested in the latest technologies that will help you to level up your infrastructure projects.
Speakers:
- Valentina Servile - Lead Software Developer and author of Continuous Deployment
- Kief Morris - Distinguished Engineer and author of Infrastructure as Code
- Erik Dörnenburg - CTO Thoughtworks Europe

More about the Technology Radar
Check out volume 31 of the Technology Radar before the webinar and get a sneak peek into all blips.
The report divides the trends into four groups: Techniques, platforms, tools, programming languages and frameworks. Within these groups, each trend has a recommendation: "Hold" for technologies that are not initially recommended for use; "Assess" for technologies that require further evaluation; "Trial" for technologies that are ready for use; and "Adopt" for mature technologies.
The themes of the latest edition were:
- Coding assistance antipatterns
- Rust is anything but rusty
- The gradual rise of WASM
- The Cambrian explosion of generative AI tools
