Absolutely loved the workshop. The hands-on platform was amazing and added more interaction to the workshop and allowed us attendees to try the enterprise tools ourselves without having to install all of the necessary tools/dependencies. The topics were covered well in-depth. Looking forward to more like this!
This is one of the few expert sources I have seen around. Other workshops I have attended just followed the documentation from istio.io. Your workshops had all original content and were amazing.
Great sessions and courses, learned a lot. Thank you so much to the team for arranging this.
I really like the presentation, and the hands-on lab, very helpful!
