Hear about what CDEs are and the complexities we at Gitpod have faced with getting CDEs into the hands of customers.

With everything moving to the cloud, why haven’t our development environments? In fact, they already have!

With CDEs (Cloud Development Environments) you get all the power of the cloud: elasticity, scale and security, but for your dev environment.

Gitpod’s “Dedicated” deployment model enables companies sensitive code and access to never leave their cloud account perimiter.

Building on Jim’s intro to CodeWhisperer, Lou will give a 101 on CDEs and how architectural deployment models like Gitpod Dedicated can accelerate the adoption of Generative AI in an organisational setting by resolving many of the security, audit, privacy and data concerns.

Join us also after the talk to dig into the intersection of CDEs and Generative AI over a drink or two!

Have you ever noticed how much time you spend troubleshooting your local development environment before you can actually begin writing code? Software engineers spend a large amount of their time per week managing their local development environment or waiting for builds and tests to complete. Since we've moved most creative workflows to the cloud, including processes like automated continuous integration and continuous deployment, how can we address the 'works on my machine' issue?

In this talk we will explore the topic of cloud development environments (CDEs) and how to remove friction from the developer experience through increasing velocity, collaboration, and control.
