On December 1st, we launched our Write to Win contributor contest. The goal? Be one of the ten contributors whose original DZone content received the most cumulative pageviews during the month of December. Contest posted to the DevOps and Performance Zones counted for double the pageviews, and there was no limit to the number of posts allowed.
The contest officially ended on December 31st, and we are pleased to announce the winners. Drumroll, please...
