SHOW NOTES:

Topic 1 - Welcome to the show. Before we get into a broader discussion, tell us a little bit about your background.\\xa0

Topic 2 - Before we dig into the New Relic Developer Program, we wanted to get your perspective on what \\u201cdeveloper\\u201d means these days - Is it AppDev, DevOps, Data Scientist, Business Analyst? How do you try and put personas around different \\u201cdeveloper\\u201d needs?

Topic 3 - One of the things I find in working with businesses that are going through transformational change (via technology) is how many don\\u2019t understand that their new world (\\u201cenabling developers\\u201d) will begin to look like a technology vendor\\u2019s approach to the market (\\u201cenabling developers\\u201d). Do you find your customers begin to adopt their internal programs to look like the program that you\\u2019ve rolled out with New Relic One?\\xa0

Topic 4 - What are some of the most important/critical aspects of the program, and how do you measure its progress, its success, or its areas to improve?

Topic 5 - How did you think about balancing the need for content for newer developers (or new to the platform) vs. more expert-level developers?\\xa0

Topic 6 - How important is community to making the program a success, and helping it scale?
