Hands-on learning at NANOG Hackathons 👉
by NANOG Marketing 27 Nov '19

27 Nov '19

*A conversation with Michael Costello * “In school, students are starting to learn the basics, and hopefully they'll have some labs,” says Michael Costello, Manager of Network Tools at Netflix. “On the job, most work is done maintaining or extending systems, and nearly all this work is constrained to only technologies that are relevant to the business. Here, the entire day is hands-on after an optional tutorial, and given the topics and technologies, there is likely something that will be novel to all participants.” We recently had a conversation with Michael, who’s been instrumental in planning and executing five NANOG Hackathons, including the NANOG 77 hack in Austin, Texas. Learn more about these events, which not only foster greater networking knowledge, but also directly support the most critical aspects of our mission as a nonprofit organization dedicated to building the Internet of tomorrow.
