Technology community (web operations)
The cross-government web operations (web ops) community exists to:
- share information about web ops for government services
- discuss and challenge how web ops work for government services
- bring together people from across government with an interest in web ops
Who the community is for
You might be interested in this community if you’re involved in any aspect of web ops, for example:
- setting up hosting for a service
- setting up deployment environments
- managing software configuration
- monitoring the uptime and availability of a live service
You do not need to be in a web ops role to join.
Join the community
Join the #web-operations channel on the cross-government Slack to discuss cross-government web ops issues (request access using your government email address).
If you cannot access the channel, email [email protected] for help.
Resources
The technology in government blog documents how technologists across government are building, assembling and running digital and technology projects.
