What Not to Submit
We want you to be selective in what you submit, so we are putting a few restrictions in place this year:
Introductory-level talks on broadly-deployed technologies, vendor presentations, or purely theoretical architecture talks will not be accepted and may not even be referred to the whole team for review.
We are particularly looking for talks that spark discussion, challenges and hallways exchanges, based on real-world implementations — not just lectures expected to be taken as gospel.
Talks must be submitted by the author / speaker, and not by PR agencies or marketing teams on the speaker’s behalf.
Key Information:
Each session will be 30 minutes with an extra 10 minutes for Quiz (40 minutes in total).
