This presentation was recorded at GOTO Amsterdam 2022. #GOTOcon #GOTOams Erik Ammerlaan - Tech Lead at NN (Nationale Nederlanden) ORIGINAL TALK TITLE How Serverless Technologies Accelerate Our Digital Transformation ABSTRACT Are you curious how you can effectively scale a technology stack from greenfield development to enterprise scale? The SJGAR stack (pronounce SUGAR stack) has allowed this company to do just that. Learn how serverless technologies play a key role in the transformation of this financial services company to a modern FinTech. Hear about the journey and learn for yourself how this technology stack, which relies heavily on JavaScript, not just helps you to accelerate, but how it leads to engineers that are fully empowered and motivated to solve actual customer problems, and have a great time while doing so. In this talk you will learn: • What the SJGAR stack is and why it scales so well from greenfield all the way to enterprise • How a customer-first approach and emergent architecture go hand in hand • Why a Full Stack workforce leads to engineers taking ownership [...] TIMECODES 00:00 Intro 02:12 Digital transformation at an insurance 07:24 SJGAR stack (SUGAR stack) 12:58 How to scale this? 14:46 Culture starter 16:11 Organization 18:20 Platform through product 19:30 DevOps? 20:16 How did it go? 25:28 Digital where possible, personal when needed 26:45 How to accelerate your digital transformation? 27:23 Outro Read the full abstract here: RECOMMENDED BOOKS Thomas M.
