When you’re migrating to the cloud you quickly end up with a lot of repositories and drift becomes a key risk factor. Over time, companies see fragmentation across their microservices architecture, where increasing numbers of repositories fall behind the desired state. 

This happens with licensing. It happens with dependencies, configuration and API usage, as well as company-specific concerns. It also happens with container security, as outdated images can mean vulnerabilities, and poor port management leads to exposure. 

Join CEO and founder of Atomist, Rod Johnson as he outlines how organizations can fix these critical problems to guard against drift and sprawl. Rod will present the entropy that has happened to company systems, and how to direct a large number of codebase projects with next-gen workflows that keep the small shards of data and infrastructure from becoming a frustrating puzzle of inconsistent status.
