"United Airlines -Journey to SharePoint 2016 and Beyond"
Rick Garcia

Join me as I discuss the challenges of upgrading one of the largest airlines in the world to SharePoint 2016/SharePoint Online from SharePoint 2010. I will discuss the planning and the tools that were used to help us along the way. I will provide specific examples of the roadblocks we faced and how we overcome them. I will also talk about the opportunities that SharePoint 2016 brings to the airline industry.
I will also talk about our current plans for building out our SharePoint 2016/SharePoint Online hybrid environment and the challenges and opportunities this presents. Lastly, I will provide insight into how United plans to leverage the new functionality of SharePoint 2016 and SharePoint Online to better serve our front-line customers (and internal business customers). |

"Agile in 160 Billion Gallons"
Drew Shefman, Software Craftsman, Agile Evangelist, Mentor, and Scrum Master
Information and Registration
While Agile concepts may sometimes be easy, the why’s and how’s are a little trickier to wrap your head around. I’ve unfortunately participated in three recent rising flood water events in Houston over the last three years. Employing my agile skills has had a profound impact on the “success of the project”.
I will be mapping common Agile ideas to dealing with rising water encroaching on your home. I start with an interactive exercise where we talk about flooding, with the outcome being the question: “What do you do when you know that your house might flood?” The answer to this question is the “backlog” in agile terms. We will talk about the demo, retro, and sprint planning as the most critical agile practices even though they seem like the first things to go when you are in an emergency.
Newcomers and experts alike, will leave with a palpable, even visceral, connection to some frequent Agile concepts and an understanding of why all of the practices need to stay in place. An additional side benefit might even be for the attendees to begin to envision Agile applications outside of software development. |
