CHICAGO (PRWEB) MAY 19, 2020

Copado, a leading native DevOps platform for Salesforce, today announced DevOps Days, the largest Salesforce DevOps event in the world. In a series of virtual events spanning five regions, DevOps Days is designed to help companies build the digital factories that are required to shift to digital business models. Starting May 20, Copado DevOps Days will demonstrate how to bring the speed and governance of DevOps to the power of the Salesforce Platform in order to increase development and release velocity.

Copado has partnered with Salesforce, Elements Cloud, OwnBackup and Provar to train and certify thousands of Salesforce DevOps professionals. Each event includes keynote talks, hands-on training and certification, and networking with DevOps experts, customers, partners and system integrators who are redefining how to measure success running and operating Salesforce at scale.

“COVID-19 has been a catalyst for change across the globe, with experts claiming that it is accelerating digital transformation for every company,” said Ted Elliott, Chief Executive Officer for Copado. “Projects that were once a nice-to-have have become a need-to-have literally overnight. DevOps is the engine to bring Salesforce digital transformation projects to market quickly and, as a result, the demand for DevOps experts is growing. Copado DevOps Days is designed to provide our ecosystem with the tools and skills to successfully plan and execute a new digital go-to-market strategy.”

Peter Coffee, Vice President of Strategic Research at Salesforce, will deliver the welcome address and David Brooks, Vice President of Product for Copado, will present the opening keynote “5 Steps to Salesforce DevOps Nirvana.” Other speakers include a variety of Copado executives and DevOps experts who will teach attendees how to use DevOps to accelerate and improve the speed and quality of their implementations.

Each event offers four tracks: Leadership, Partner, Technology and Certification. The leadership track showcases executives, influencers and thought leaders providing insights into the state of Salesforce DevOps, exclusive product insights and ideas on how to improve performance. For Salesforce implementation partners or ISVs, the partner track shares how to ensure clients benefit from a best-in-class, Salesforce native DevOps platform and how to use DevOps expertise to create new revenue streams.

The technology track hosts experts that take a deep dive into the Salesforce continuous integration and delivery cycle (CI/CD). Attendees will learn how to plan, build, deliver and manage large Salesforce projects at scale. The certification track is intended for Salesforce technical professionals who want to better understand DevOps and get certified with Copado. Each attendee will receive a $250 voucher to become Copado DevOps Certified.
