Know-how successfully shipped: About 30 Software Developers from the Rhein-Neckar region were hosted by VESCON last Wednesday. Within the scope of a "Docker Beginners Workshop" the interested participants ventured into the topic of Dockers with five mentors.

In addition to a lively discussion about the beginners' impulse lecture by Robert Reiz, the participants also tested the theory themselves. Under the guidance of experienced mentors, the interested participants were able to gain their own first-hand experience in working with Docker. Docker is a software for container virtualization, i.e. applications or services are packed into an isolated environment. Docker is used to synchronize development with the production environment. We would like to particularly thank our two in-house Docker experts Martin and Marcel, who were able to directly answer any technical questions.

Along with the professional exchange, delicious pizza and drinks were served in an open atmosphere, so that at the end of the four-hour event all participants and mentors started their way home having gained new skills and acquaintances.

Many thanks also to Jens Doose, who organized this event using the Meetup.com platform and actively supported us on site. We are looking forward to further events of this kind!
