Southern California's open source and free software expo
SCaLE 18x
With numerous exhibitors and workshops, SCaLE 18x covered a wide range of open source topics.
SCaLE 18x, in Pasadena, California, from March 5-8, 2020, offered over 150 exhibitors and nearly 130 workshops, tutorials, and events.
The event kicked off on Thursday morning with workshops, including tracks on embedded, PostgreSQL, and sponsored topics. Probably the best workshop on Thursday was the introduction to containers and Kubernetes. After being reorganized into a full day event, demand for this workshop was greater than the presenters could have anticipated. In the sponsored track a workshop on working with Jenkins and continuous delivery was offered.
On Friday, topics like Kubernetes, GitLab, PostgreSQL, and related issues were presented throughout the day. At 2pm, the exhibition hall opened to a large crowd who grabbed any GNU/Linux swag that wasn't nailed down. Aleksey Tsalolikhin, from the Linux Professional Institute, gave a presentation entitled "DevOps Tools Engineer Preparation Session." Other events on the schedule included a GitLab community day, several DevOps sessions, "Getting Started with FreeBSD," and many others.
