cdCon 2022 – Wrap Up (and Recordings)

By Blog, Staff

Continuous Delivery Foundation (CDF) held its first-ever, in-person cdCon on June 7-8 in Austin, Texas co-located with OpenJS World. The event was full of excitement and great moments since the attendees had a chance to meet their fellow community members—with whom they have been collaborating for a long time—in person.

The event was full of great keynotes and sessions. In addition to the main event, projects that are part of CDF, CDEvents, Jenkins, Tekton, Jenkins X and Shipwright, held community summits, discussing the ongoing and upcoming work the projects are working with and how they can help organizations to embrace CD and DevOps.

In addition to the main event and project summits, the hallway track was busy as well and there were few topics most of the attendees talked about such as Interoperability in CI/CD, Software Supply Chain, and Best Practices in CD. This was a great acknowledgement of the work done by the various groups within the CDF and as well as the projects under its umbrella. As we all know, CI/CD practitioners from various industries as well as contributors and maintainers of most widely used CI/CD projects within the ecosystem are part of our community. This makes us believe that we as CDF Community have a great future ahead of us with lots of opportunities to improve the state of CD!

We also received great feedback about cdCon and already started addressing them within CDF so please keep an eye on CDF Website and social media for updates. We will start reaching out to our communities soon and invite them to work with us to make our upcoming events even better!

Announcing CD Foundation’s New General Manager: Fatih Degirmenci

By Blog, Staff

We’re happy to announce that Fatih Degirmenci has joined the Continuous Delivery Foundation as the new General Manager!

His first day in his new role was on June 1. He was previously at Ericsson for sixteen years where he spent nearly half of it as an open source contributor and maintainer and made his way up to Principal Developer. 

From the beginning, Fatih was very involved in the CD Foundation. In fact, he was at the very first public meeting that took place during the Open Source Leadership Summit in California in March 2019, which was when the CD Foundation was announced. 

Since then, he’s been heavily involved in various corners of the community and part of its special interest groups (SIG) most notably, the Interoperability SIG and Software Supply Chain SIG. He also served on the Technical Oversight Committee (TOC) as an end-user representative.

“Continuous Delivery is a key software development practice, enabling organizations to move from an idea to the working code and finally to new products and services in a fast, secure, and sustainable manner. I’m here because I believe in the importance of CD and this Foundation and want to continue to work and collaborate with this awesome community,” says Fatih. “I’m excited about the future and look forward to working more closely with all of you!”

In the past, Fatih also contributed to other open communities including the Linux Foundation Networking (LFN) projects and OpenStack, mainly working around cross-community collaboration topics. Some of the initiatives and projects Fatih was part of in the past are the Open Platform for Network Functions Virtualization (OPNFV) Release Engineering, Cross Community CI (XCI) Project and OpenCI Community.
