Last week saw our August instalment of DOXTOR take place, this time hosted by Financeit as we returned to Toronto for the 6th month in a row.
Similar to previous events, this event was pretty popular within the Toronto DevOps community and attracted over 80 like-minded individuals. As always, we were joined by three established companies who delved into the latest advancements in the DevOps world. We were joined by; American multinational technology corporation, IBM, Oracle Cloud Solutions Provider, Eclipsys Solutions and finally our hosts at Financeit.
