>>Mhm Hello and welcome back to the cubes coverage of 80 of his public sector summit live for two days in D. C. In person. CuBA's here is an expo floor that people face to face down here. Adriana guest co founder and Ceo of Girls in tech cube alumni friend of the cube. We've known her for a long time. Watch their success really making an impact. Great to see you. Thanks for coming on. >>Wonderful to see you, john, thanks so much for having me. >>You know, one of the things that Sandy carter talks about matt max Peter talks about all of the Amazonian leadership that's about is skills training. Okay, this is a big deal. Okay, so getting talented to the industry is critical and also diversity and women attacking underrepresented minority groups are key. This has been a look at constant focus, you've been successful and and convincing folks about tech and working hard, what's the update, >>wow. So the reason why we're here, not only as Sandy carter are amazing chairman of the board of six plus years, but I heard we heard so many pain points from several of our partners as well as our good friends over at the White House and the Department of State and many other public sector agencies that there is a deficit. It's been very difficult to find diverse groups of talent and talent period to join their companies and populate those important I. T. Jobs stem jobs, whether it's very very technical or more data driven or more sort of design focus, product development focus across the board it's been very hard for them to find talent for those jobs. So girls in tech has partnered with AWS to create an initiative called the next generation public sector leaders and really focusing on creating awareness on career development opportunities for up and coming talent diverse talent that is curious and interested in job opportunities and educational opportunities within the public sector. So it has multi tiers, right? And it's something that we've devised based on the need and based on a lot of data and a lot of interviews from a lot of our partners and within the A. P. N. Network and we're doing a mentorship program which is a six month long program matching these amazing public sector executives, really accomplished leaders as well as our members from around the world um to connect and expose them and provide that nurturing, fostering mentality so that they can succeed in their careers. So >>eight of us getting behind this mission. Yes. And public sector is really fast growing changing. You start to see a lot of public private partnerships go on. So not just the old school public sector business, I mean the pandemic has shown the impact of society. So what does that do for the melting pot of talent out there? Have you seen anything out there? And how does that relate to this? Is that helped you at all or what's that does that mean for the mission? >>So there is a melting pot of talent. I just think we need to do a better job of creating awareness and really knowing where that talent lives. Like what are the blogs that they read? What are the videos that they watch and listen to? Where are they? Right. And we need to do the hard work and investigating and understanding like taking a more empathetic approach to really finding out what um how we can access them what their needs are. What are the things that interest piqued their interest within these jobs within the public sector um And customize it and market it so that they'll be eager and excited. Um And it would be more appealing to them. >>So I looked at the press release I just want to get your reaction to something you got evening with the experts. It's an in person event. >>Yes. When >>is that? Is that here is that going to be on your own event? What's that about? >>All the events that are going to be in person? Will be in D. C. Um There will be some virtual events as well. Our mentorship program is all virtual six month long program with curriculum and matchmaking on a platform that we use the evening with the experts which is a panel discussion with experts from a A. W. S. And beyond the A. P. N. Network. We'll talk about challenges and technology opportunities within a career development and also jobs. Um Well do recruitment like on the fly type of activities as well. Speed and speed interviewing, speed networking? Um We also have a few other programs, our webinar which is about the next gen public sector opportunities and this is more about the challenges that people face that companies face and the new technologies that will be launched very soon. And we're doing a widget on our jobs board to highlight the new career opportunity, new job opportunities from all of the public sector partners. We work with >>a very comprehensive, >>It's very comprehensive on the six >>month guided mentorship program. How does someone get involved in applications? How what's that going on there? >>It will be an application process and we will promote it to anyone who signs up to our newsletter. So go to Girls in tech dot org. Sign up for our newsletter and we will be posting and sharing more information on how people get involved. But we'll definitely send custom uh E. D. M essentially promoting to the people who are here at the conference and also through our Girls in tech D. C. Chapter as well. >>So I have to ask you, I know you've been really busy, been very successful. You've been out and about what's the trend line looked like? Well >>not for the last few years though, >>you've >>been in lockdown now. >>You've been working hard, you know have not not about now. You >>are not >>about what's the temperature like now in terms of the pulse of the industry relative to progress, what's what's what are you finding, what's the current situation >>progress for women in tech in the industry. So Since I started girls in tech in 2007, we've made A lot of progress, I would say it's a lot slower than I thought it would be, but you do see more and more women and people representing bipac actually apply for those jobs. We it is astronomically different than 2006, when I started in my first startup and there's a lot more mentorship, There are a lot more organizations out there that companies are more accountable with the R. G. Groups and they're changing their policies, are changing their training programs are having more off sites, there's now technologies that focus on tracking uh productivity and happiness of employees so that like all of that did not exist or I should say none of that existed, you know? And so we worked hard, we've worked hard, but it takes a village, it takes a lot of different people to create that change. And now one of girls in text mission is not just providing that education that community, that mentorship, we want to get the corporate involved, we want to teach the corporate about D and I training the importance of diversity, different tactics to recruit uh so on and so forth. And and it's been so amazing, so inspirational, I love, I started working more in partnerships and having our monthly calls with partners because I love it. I love collaborating to >>recruit good peer group around you to accelerate and create more territory of awareness and impact more people can get their hands involved. And I think to me that's what I think you're starting to see that with podcasts and media people are starting to go direct to tell their story, apps are out there now as you mentioned. So, but I feel like we're on a crossover point coming soon, totally thinks it's different. Um, but it's still a >>lot more work to do a lot more. We just got the service. I know, I know you've just scratched the surface, but we're so excited to be here. Aws is a huge supporter thanks to Sandy carter and her team. Um, it's been an amazing experience. >>Sandy's got great vision, she takes risks. So she's actually got the Amazonian concept of experiment, try something double down if it works and that's great to see that you guys have extended that relationship with, with her and the team. I like this idea of the fellowship cohort model of the or that program, you have the mentorship program. I think that's super cool. Um, that's something I think will be very successful. >>Uh, it's been successful so far. We typically over sell our mentorship are mentee spots. Uh, we only have 500 spots and last one we had over 2300 like a crazy amount, so we know that our members are really hungry for it around the world. And we know it will just be as just as popular for the public sector. So >>what's next for you? What's the vision? What's the next step was events are coming back in person? We're here in person. >>Yeah, there's just so much going on. I wish I could clone myself and we're busting at the seams. And I think the things that are really exciting to me are being able to produce our programs internationally, specifically in developing countries. So we're working um we haven't made an official announcement yet or anything, but we are working on expanding in african countries with Aws. They're doing some efforts and making some movements there. So places like Cameroon Ghana Nigeria Egypt. Uh we are looking to create chapters there for Girls in Tech and then expand our programming. Uh we're also, as mentioned earlier, we're working a lot with corporations to provide DNA training. So, training about policies, Inclusive leadership. Making sure they have the tools and policies to succeed and for their employees to feel comfortable, safe and productive in their work environment >>is great to see you. Congratulations Girls in tech dot org. Yes. Is the U. R. L. Check it out a great mission, very successful. Making progress any stats you can throw out there, you can share. >>Yeah, of course, you >>wrap it up. >>Yeah. So right now, girls in tech has 58 active chapters in 38 countries with over 70,000 active members. And by the end of the year we will have close to 100 active members. So hopefully we'll see you next year and that number will double or triple sign >>up. Tell him johN sent, you know, don't say that because you won't get no. Great to see you. >>Thank you.

Intermission 2 | DockerCon 2021


 

>>welcome back everyone. We're back to intermission. I'm hama in case you forgot and hear them with Brett and Peter. So what a great morning afternoon. We've had like we're now in the home stretch and you know, I really want to give a shout out to all of you who are sticking with us, especially if you're in different time zone than pacific. So I then jumped into the community rooms. The spanish won, the Brazilian won the french one. Everybody is just going strong. So again, so much so gratitude for that. Thank you for being so involved and really participating the chat rooms in the community. The chat windows in the community rooms are just going nuts. So it's, it's really good to see that. And as usual, Peter and brat had some great, very interactive panels and that was very exciting to watch. But you know, since they were on the panels, I decided to go and see some other things and I actually attended the last mile of container ization. That was, that was actually a very good session. We had a lot of good interactivity there. Yeah. And then while also talked about the container security in the cloud native world. So that was, I think that was your panel peter. That was, that was very exciting. And um, I want to share with everybody the numbers that we've been seeing for dr khan live. So as, as of, I'm sorry, said we need a drumroll. We do need a drum roll. Can you do a drum roll for me? No, no, no. >>Just a >>symbol. Okay, good. Go. Uh, we're at over 22,000 attendees um, today. So that's amazing. That's great. I love the sound effect. That's a great sound effect. The community rooms continue to be really engaged. We're still seeing hundreds of people in those rooms. So again shout out to everyone who is participating. And I felt again like a kid in a candy store didn't know which sessions to attend. They were all very interesting and you know, we're getting some good feedback on twitter. I want to read out some more tweets that we got and one in particular, I don't know whether to feel happy for this person or sad for this person, but it's uh well the initials are P. W. And he said that he was up at two am to watch the keynotes. So again, I'll let you decide whether you're it's a good thing or not, but we're happy to have you PW is awesome. Um as well. There was someone who said that these features are so needed. The things that dr announced this morning in the keynotes and that doctor has reacted to our pains and I think they mean has addressed their pain. So that was really gratifying to read. Yeah, really wonderful. That's some other countries that I didn't shout out before this just tells you what the breadth and scope of our community is. Indonesia, la paz Bolivia, Greece, Munich, Ukraine, oxford UK Australia Philippines. And there's just more and I'm going to do a special shadow to Montreal because that's where I'm from. So yes, applause for that. It was really great. And so I just want to thank all of you. Um, I want to encourage you when we talked about the power of community. Remember we're doing a fundraiser. So to combat Covid for Covid relief or actually all that money is going to go to UNICEF. Docker is contributing 10,000 and we're doing a go fund me. And the link is there on the screen. So please donate. You know, just $1. 1 person each of you donates $1. We would have raised over $22,000. So please please find it within you to contribute because again, our communities that are, that are the most effective are India and brazil, which are are very active doctor affinity. So please give back. I really appreciate that >>highlighted by the brazil. Yeah. >>You're going to brazil room and get them all to donate. Exactly. Um, also want to encourage, you know, if you're interested in participating in our, in our road map. Our public road map is on GIT hub. So it's get home dot com slash docker slash roadmap. And that's something that you can participate in and vote up features that you want to see. We love to get the community involved and participating in our, in our road map. So make sure to check that out. And I also want to note on that >>Hello can real quick. I'm sorry. Yeah, I talk about our road map all the time, but honestly folks out there are PMS are in their our ceo is in there that we do watch that. That is our roadmap is extremely, extremely important to us. So any features complaints, right, joining the conversation. That's a great way to get uh to interact with Docker in our products. Right. We we really highly valued the road map. Okay, back to your mama, sorry. >>Oh absolutely. And if you want to see us be even more responsive to what you need to participate in that road map discussion. That's really great. Um a couple of things coming up, just want to put the spotlight on. We have at 3 15 what's new with with desktop from our own ue cow. So I highly recommend that you attend that session and of course there's the Woman in tech live panel. So this is very exciting, moderated by yours truly and it has putting a spotlight on our women captains and our women developers. So that's very exciting. But I also hear that we're doing there's a session with jay frog coming up so peter, why don't you talk about that a little bit? >>Yeah, we have a session coming up from our partners from jay frog around devops patterns and anti patterns for continuous software updates. And another one that I'm extremely excited about is uh RM one talk from our very own Tony's from Docker. So if you have an M one and you're interested in multi arc architecture builds, check that out. It's gonna be a great, great talk. Um and then we have melissa McKay also from jay frog, talking about Docker and the container ecosystem and last but definitely not least. We'll check them all out there. Going to be great. But Brett is going to be doing I think the best panel that I'm gonna go watch and he made up a new word, it's called say this. I'm all about the trending new words today about this is gonna be awesome. Yeah. Yeah >>I'm going to have the battle bottle of the panels. >>Yeah. Yeah well mine's before years so we're not competing. So yeah we have we have two excellent panels in a row to finish off the day and just seven list is basically how to run, how can we run containers without managing servers? So it doesn't mean you don't actually have infrastructure just let's not manage service. Um Yeah and we we uh need to wrap it up and >>Uh before we do that I just want to um tell everyone that we actually have a promotion going on. So we um for those that sign up for a pro or team subscription, we're offering a 20% off so there's the U. R. L.. You can check out what the promotion is and this is for a new and returning users so you can use the promo code dr khan 21 all the information is on the website are really encourage you to check that out promotion for 20% off, join us for our panels. And we're doing a wrap up at five p.m. Where we'll have our own Ceo and that wrap up portion. Look forward to seeing there. All right, >>thank you too. All right everyone we'll see you on the next go around coming up next me and some other people awesome and Yeah. Mhm. Mhm. Yeah. >>Yeah. Yeah. Mhm. Is >>a really varied community. There's a lot of people with completely different backgrounds, completely different experience levels and completely different goals about how they want to use Docker. And I think that's really interesting. It's always easy to talk about the technology that I've used for so many years. I really love Doctor and I can find so many ways that it's useful and it's great to use in your day to day work clothes. I've >>used doctor for anything from um tracking airplanes with my son, which was a kind of cool project to more professional projects where we actually Built one of the first database as his services using docker even before it was 10 and I was released and we took it further and we start composing monitoring tools. We really start taking it to the next level. And we got to the point where I was trying to make everything in a container, I love to use >>doctor to make disposable project so I can download the project and it's been that up using Docker compose or something like that in a way that every developer that works in the project doesn't even need to know the underlying technology doesn't just need to run Docker compose up and the whole project is going to be up and running even if >>you're not using doctor and production, there are a lot of other ways that you can use doctor to make your life so much easier. As a developer, you can run your projects on your machine locally. Um as a tester you can actually launch test containers and be able to run um dependencies that your project requires. You can run real life versions so that um you're as close to production as possible. >>I was able to migrate most of the workloads from our on from uh to the cloud. Running complete IEDs inside a docker or running it or using it basically to replace their build scripts or using it to run not web applications but maybe compile c plus plus code or compile um projects that really just require some sort of consistency across their team, >>whether it be a web app or a database, I can control these all the same. That was really the power I saw within Doctors standardization and the portability >>doctor isn't the one that created containers uh and uh but it's the one that made it uh democratically possible, so everyone use it. And this effort has made the technology environment so much better for everyone that uses it, both for developers and for end users. So this >>past year has been quite interesting and I think we're all in the same boat here, so no one has, no one is an exception to this, but what we all learn from it is, you know, the community is very important and to lean on other people for help for assistance. >>Yeah, it's been really challenging of course, but I think the biggest and most obvious thing that I've learned both on a personal and a business perspective is just to be ready to adapt to change and don't be afraid of it either. I think it's worth noting that you should never really take it for granted that the paradigms of, you know, the world or technology or something like that aren't going to shift drastically and very, very quickly. >>I'm looking forward to what is coming down the pipe with doctor. What more are they going to throw our way in order to make our lives easier? >>It's very interesting to see the company grow and adapt the way it has. I mean it as well as the community, it's been very interesting to see, you know, how, you know, the return to develop our focus is now the main focus and I find that's very interesting because, you know, developers are the ones that really boost the doctor to where it is today. And if we keep on encouraging these developer innovation, we'll just see more tools being developed on top of Doctor in the future, and that's what I'm really excited to see with Doctor and the technology in the future.
