PTW19 Kickoff Festival in Old City
In May of 2019, I attended a Philadelphia Tech Week event at Linode. Based in Old City, Linode is a privately owned company that provides virtual private servers. Linodes most popular products are their cloud-hosting servers. The servers allow their customer to back up their servers through an online portal or mobile application anywhere, at any time with the push of a button. While touring the company\\\\\\\’s office I was able to view an ERD that displayed how the information from the servers are updated via mobile application or web. What I found most interesting was the flow chart they had that displayed the front and back end of their website. The visual outlined the interaction between a customer and their website. Seeing the flow chart prompted me to research UX design and build flowcharts of my own for future projects. This event provided me with insight and clarity which helped me decide what career path I would like to pursue.
