19:00 - 20:00

Chris Richardson, Russell Miles, Sam Newman, Stefan Tllkov and Susanne Kaiser join Eberhard Wolff for an open discussion about the do’s and don’t’s of microservices. We will try to get the audience to ask the most important questions that are still open after the first day of the conference, and make sure we address the skeptics’ arguments. Have anything you’d like Eberhard to ask the panelists? Send him your favorite question to @ewolff on Twitter or be there when our panel starts to ask it yourself.
