No BS Insights from 100+ conversations about DevOps
From Platform Engineering to SRE to now AI, it seems that DevOps is booming and at the same time in an existential crisis.
This no-nonsense talk boils down what is happening in the space to its essence.
The content is packed with learnings from speaking with 100+ people in the field, from DevOps engineers to Devs to CTOs, about what they actually experience.
Plus where people think the space is going and what they feel the missing pieces are.

Automated Infrastructure Tagging: Reliability and Extendability
Visibility over infrastructure metadata, such as ownership, environment, and related components, brings many benefits to the table by streamlining incident response, keeping infrastructure costs under control, and unlocking fine-grained access for enhanced security. However, it also often entails excessive manual effort, eventually making it unreliable.
Based on extensive hands-on experience and discussions with many DevOps and FinOps professionals across more than a dozen organizations, this session explores how to achieve tagging excellence with minimal effort while maximizing reliability and extendability.
