Speakers coming soon

We're currently confirming an exciting lineup of speakers from across the DevOps community — stay tuned! Expect insights from industry leaders, experienced practitioners, and inspiring local voices.

We invite speakers, practitioners, and community builders to submit proposals that explore the intersection of DevOps, AI, cloud-native technologies, platform engineering, security, and team culture.
If you're passionate about DevOps, engineering culture, or infrastructure — this could be your spotlight.

Topic guide

To help inspire your talk or workshop submission, here are some suggested categories and themes:

DevOps practices & automation

Topics that explore modern approaches to delivering software at scale, infrastructure automation, or maturing DevOps capabilities:

  • CI/CD at scale
  • GitOps and policy-driven deployment
  • Managing legacy systems in modern environments
  • Autonomous or AI-augmented operations
  • Trunk-based development practices

Cloud-native & Kubernetes

Insights and practical sessions on working with Kubernetes, containers, and cloud-native stacks:

  • Scaling Kubernetes deployments
  • Cluster API, Cilium, and eBPF
  • Infrastructure as code (Terraform, CDK, KCL)
  • Lightweight distributions and edge use cases

AI & MLOps

Explore how AI is changing development, operations, and infrastructure:

  • Integrating AI/ML into DevOps pipelines
  • MLOps for forecasting and anomaly detection
  • Agentic workflows in platform engineering
  • Responsible and secure deployment of AI systems
  • AI in hiring and organizational design

Security & Compliance

Security topics relevant to DevOps and platform teams:

  • DevSecOps practices and shifting security left
  • OAuth2, OIDC, and API security
  • Open-source software governance and compliance
  • Privacy-preserving infrastructure for AI
  • Managing "security fatigue" in complex environments

Observability & Monitoring

Topics on understanding and operating complex systems:

  • eBPF-based observability
  • Cost-efficient monitoring at scale
  • Data-driven approaches to performance tuning
  • Real-world observability architectures

Sustainability & Green Tech

Sessions that address environmental and ethical aspects of DevOps and infrastructure:

  • Carbon-aware computing in systems engineering
  • Measuring and reducing energy impact
  • Tech for sustainable organizations

Culture, People & Mindsets

Talks on the human side of DevOps and tech culture:

  • Self-leadership and navigating complexity
  • Psychological safety in high-stakes environments
  • Community building in developer ecosystems
  • Cognitive load, burnout, and motivation
  • Gamification and simulation-based learning

Workshops & Hands-On Labs

We welcome interactive sessions and technical deep-dives:

  • Kubernetes security and observability labs
  • MLOps and AI platform architecture
  • Terraform, GitOps, and policy as code
  • Simulations (e.g., Lean Portfolio Management)
  • Collaborative team exercises (e.g., Lego4DevOps)
