Leveraging client cases, see how our team used VS code, why we chose to use VS code in these situations and how you can do the same. We will discuss VS Code and the IFS, VS and SEU, using VS code for converting files from DDS to DDL, the DB2 for i extension, etc.

Keep your source code close and your artifacts closer
Monday May 19, 2025 5:05pm - 5:25pm PDT
So you moved your IBM i source code to git but what about your artifacts? It seems like they should be hosted somewhere...into an artifact repository perhaps? If you agree with this statement, then this short session may be of interest to you. Through the use of Jenkins and an artifact repository like Sonatype Nexus or JFrog Artifactory, discover why it may be a good idea to build once, store the result and deploy it many times, to ensure deployment consistency and traceability.
