DevOps in Flow: Mastering the Art of AI-Driven Development and Deployment: An IITPSA and DevConf webinar

As AI is poised to automate up to 80% of coding tasks, over 1 million developers are now leveraging AI to enhance their coding efficiency. This evolution raises critical questions about the future role of developers in an AI-centric world. Microsoft are not just optimistic but proactive in addressing these changes.

This presentation will delve into research and insights on maintaining ‘Flow’ – the optimal state of focused and efficient coding – in the era of AI and DevOps. We will explore how AI tools like GitHub Copilot, with its latest chat integration, are transforming coding by not just speeding up the process but also enriching creativity and quality. Moreover, we will demonstrate how GitHub Actions for Azure can revolutionize Java Web App development by streamlining the DevOps cycle, including building, testing, packaging, releasing, and deploying, thus creating a seamless workflow. Microsoft’s vision is clear: AI is not a replacement but a powerful ally in the evolving landscape of software development and operations.
