Presentation: Getting Real About Managing Up

Hard earned lessons from names you know on scalability, reliability, throughput, and performance.

Thoughts pushing software forward, including consensus, CRDTs, formal methods, & probabilistic programming.

Machine learning is more approachable than ever. Learn techniques and use cases with PyTorch, Keras and TensorFlow that will become foundational for moderan application developers.

Electron, Flutter, JavaScript, GraphQL, Node/NPM. Web Workers, Wasm, WebVR, Speech/Alexia/Pipeline. More topics than room in this modern UI tech track.

Innovative approaches to organizational leadership and management to build unique company cultures.

Evolving, observing, persisting, operating, and building modern architectures.

6 month cadence, cloud-native deployments, scale, Graal, Kotlin, and beyond. Learn how the role of Java as it is evolves for the next 20 years.

Explore the power of data systems & architectures

Good engineers are great programmers. Amazing engineers are great collaborators.

Privacy, confidentiality, safety, security: Learnings from the frontlines

More than just building software, building deployable production ready software in the face of guaranteed failure.

Lessons learned from building languages like Rust, Go-lang, Swift, Kotlin, and more.

What “high-performing team” means and how to build one effectively depends on context. This track will share different experiences of building high-performing teams in order to highlight how different contexts lead to different solutions but also what typically stays the same because we’re still dealing with humans trying to work together. How do different forces affect the building of high-performing teams.

Deploying, scaling, managing your services is undifferentiated heavy lifting. Hear stories, learn techniques, and dive deep into software infrastructure.

Killing latency and getting the most out of your hardware.
