Winners announced at the DevOps Excellence Awards 2024
The most outstanding people, projects and companies in DevOps
The DevOps Excellence Awards 2024, held last night in London, celebrated the top achievements in the world of software development over the last 12 months.
Computing's annual DevOps Excellence Awards brought together industry leaders, experts and innovators to celebrate in style.
Gathered together at the Montcalm, Marble Arch, diners were treated to a hilarious turn by the evening's host, the award-winning comedian Mickey Overman.
Then it was on to the serious business of the awards themselves, which the judges found particulary hard to choose this year owing to the uniform excellence of the entries. But winners had to be selected.
