IBM organized IBM Developer Day, an event focussed on the sharing of knowledge about new and fast growing technologies with developers from various fields. The event covered in depth various topics such as AI, Cloud, BlockChain and Quantum Computing and much more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The event was packed with developers, managers, bloggers, enthusiasts, and anyone related to the technology world. The conference was divided into talks and demo booths. Attendees could choose from one of the three parallel tracks covering Cloud, Blockchain or AI. The attendees could also interact with IBM developers who were showcasing their work across various technologies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the major highlights at the event was the launch of “India Developer Champions<\/a>“. The multi-year program aims at recognizing developer contributions to the open source community. Ginni Rometty commented that “We\u2019re here to enable the largest ecosystem possible”.Ginni Rometty also outlines<\/p>\n\n\n\n

IBM’s CEO Gina Rometty moderated the panel discussion which focussed on Open Source and the ecosystem around OpenSource. With the acquisition of Red Hat by IBM in October 2018, IBM has suddenly become the top Hybrid Cloud Provider in the world. The panel discussed various myths associated with OpenSource. Two of the biggest myths on which everyone on the panel agreed was the misconception that “OpenSource is free” and that “OpenSource offers no support or feature requests to its<\/g> users”. The panelist debunked these myths.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

OpenSource software takes a lot more money and effort to build. Also, OpenSource software is usually much more planned and structured as it needs to be made in such a way so that it is easy for everyone to understand and contribute back. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
