Originality and Innovation: We encourage speakers to propose sessions that offer fresh insights, innovative approaches, and new perspectives on DevOps-related topics. Original content that challenges existing norms or introduces novel solutions is highly valued.
Educational Value: Sessions should aim to educate and inform the audience. Whether it's a technical deep-dive, a case study, or a thought-provoking discussion, the content should provide actionable takeaways and valuable lessons for attendees to apply in their own DevOps journeys.
Practical Demonstrations: We appreciate sessions that include practical demonstrations, live coding, or hands-on examples. These help attendees visualize the concepts being discussed and provide a more engaging learning experience.
Real-World Use Cases: Proposals highlighting real-world use cases, success stories, and challenges faced in DevOps implementations are highly sought after. Sharing practical experiences and lessons learned can inspire and guide others in their own endeavours.
