About us
What originally started as a meetup group is now a community, by the community, for the community. DevOps Finland is a group of people interested in the DevOps movement and everything around it. You don't need to be a DevOps expert, everyone who is interested can join. Let's meet to discuss about tools, practices, etc. DevOps Finland was founded in 2013, has more than 3,500 members, and is the most active DevOps-related community in Finland. The group is run by volunteers and is not directly affiliated with any company. All events are listed in DevOps Finland on Meetup: https://meetu.ps/c/Tj7H/6Ltkb/a. Be sure to join to be the first to know about upcoming events. To sponsor, contact any one of the organizers. Join our Slack: http://www.devopsfinland.org/

Big thanks to Netlight for hosting us at their offices and to DevOps Finland for organizing such a great event yesterday and to the hosts Timo Stordell & Martin Yrjölä! I had the chance to give a talk on #Kubernetes cost-saving measures at the meetup, great discussions and energy all around. Thank you also to Alena Partanen & Sebastian Sandell for their very interesting talks. Looking forward to the next one! #devops #acksio #devsecops #finops

We had a great and versatile meetup at Nitor yesterday. The set of presentations consisted of custom AWS tooling, an API testing alternative, and a platform engineering book review. Thanks for Samppa Saarela, Victor Rincon and Mike Vainio!

Last week we had a meetup at Wärtsilä 🚢 House was full packed and we had three excellent presentations. But that's not all! In this meetup, we also celebrated for having over 4000 members and being one of the largest Meetup groups in Helsinki. What started 12 years ago as a meeting in a restaurant to have beer and discuss what the "DevOps" is, has grown to be a long-living community. Thank You, Erno Aapa, for starting this! We also had astonishing speakers. We started with a presentation from Justas Keliuotis from Wärtsilä. Databricks on AWS have been trending for the last 5 years, and we just love to see how companies use technology and their experiences with it. The second presentation was from Niklas Siltakorpi from NorthCode. Since GenAI broke through, it has been described as a new team member in your team to discuss, challenge, and search for things. In time, Niklas had instrumented it to fix technical depth. Brilliant! The evening ended with a presentation from ☁️ Juho Syrjänen ☁️ form Metacore, where he explained their experience using Terraform to manage and scale Databricks environments on AWS infrastructure. Nice continuum to the topic we started with. If your company would like to sponsor our forthcoming events, please message us. We're also looking for speakers - link in comments. You can also join us in our Slack.

DevOps Finland was established 12 years ago by Erno Aapa. Yesterday, we celebrated a new milestone of having over 4000 members at Wärtsilä. Thank you to all the speakers, hosts, and people participating in our events. You make the community! 🙏
It started 12 years ago as a meeting in a restaurant to have a beer and discuss what the “DevOps” is (no one knew back then). Today, DevOps Finland is one of the largest Meetup groups in Helsinki. With over 4000 members, that's amazing! 💥 We’re celebrating it at Wärtsilä (thanks for hosting!). Huge kudos to all the people and speakers; you make the community! 🙏 And thanks to all the hosts for providing a place to meet over the years. And thanks to Timo Stordell, Niko Kivelä, and all the other organizers! You’re the backbone of the group; without you, the group would not be big and active! 🤘🏻

We forgot to take any pictures as the host but good we have speakers making posts of these great talks we had!
I'm thrilled to have shared our journey of continuously deploying happiness at sokoshotels.fi at the DevOps Finland meetup last Tuesday! The key insight is that continuous deployment does not only accelerate change frequency and decrease lead time — it fundamentally transforms team culture towards ownership and collaboration. When developers make executive decisions of shipping their latest change to our customers, the rest of the team is happily swarming around in support. Contrast this to merging your change and throwing the ball over the fence to quality assurance and release management people to ship it. The results speak for themselves: we are releasing valuable features to our users on average three times a day. During the first year with the new website, we saw double-digit growth while maintaining excellent user satisfaction. 📈 40 % Higher conversion rate 🛌 16 % More room nights sold 💰 20 % Revenue growth ⭐️ 4.5/5 Customer Effort Score (CES) A huge thank you to the DevOps Finland organizers. Our host Vitaliy Zabolotskyy's talk showcased impressive platform engineering excellence at AlphaSense and Jaakko Pallari shared deep insights into cost optimisation in the cloud. The engaged audience and thoughtful questions made the evening truly rewarding. Want to learn more about our journey?

Earlier this week, we had our November meetup at Smartly. It demonstrated the variety of topics one meetup can have! First, people from Smartly told us what it takes to deploy 2000 times a month. The presentation was carried out by Andrei Kirillov, Ruiyang D., Antti Harju & Mircea Halmagiu. This was a brilliant format to have multiple people on stage. The presentation showed what good DX is really about! Followed by Ivan Yurchenko, we deep-dived to depth or Kubernetes, which contrasted nicely with the previous presentation. What do you need to do to monitor short-lived applications? Needs skills! Jacob Lärfors ended the night with his opinionated presentation about platform engineering, which resonated with the audience's questions. This is what meetups are all about: knowledge sharing, meeting friends—new and old—and giving your knowledge back to the community! See you soon!

The last speaker of the night is no other than Jacob Lärfors. He spends his days working as a consultant at Verifa and nights as one of the organizers of DevOps Finland meetups. His presentation is about doing the right thing and not doing the right thing. In his company, this is understood as platform teams focusing too much on engineering their platform and too little on understanding the needs of their users. That said, it's safe to say that Jacob is a pragmatic engineer who enjoys helping teams with all things continuous and cloud. Come and listen to his talk, "Stop polishing turds and start delivering value for your users."
