Platform engineering — or the practice of internally developing the tools that developers will use — will soon become part of the strategy of most development teams, with Gartner evaluating that by 2026, 80% of large software engineering companies will have these teams.
It’s a relatively new concept, so to learn more about it, attend PlatformCon 2024, a week-long event that will bring together the most influential minds in the platform and DevOps space. Attendees can delve into various aspects of platform engineering from how to convince your manager to actually building the perfect platform.
Get ready to listen to Platform veterans and thought leaders like Kelsey Hightower, Gregor Hohpe, Charity Majors, Manuel Pais, Nicki Watt, Brian Finster, Mallory Haigh and many more! The event includes a total of more than 100 lectures.
The 15-minute lightning talks are divided into different tracks, including stories, technology, blueprints, culture and impact, allowing participants to explore different dimensions of platform engineering.
PlatformCon 2024 will also feature a day focused on open source, where experts will share opinions, discussions and highlights from the open source community.
The event runs from June 10th to June 14th and features top topics and speakers. Throughout the week, attendees can mingle with speakers and fellow attendees, gaining valuable knowledge and networking opportunities. The event concludes with a final live event on Friday.
Attendees will be able to watch all lectures at their own pace and join live virtual kick-off events for their region. Speakers will be available for questions and answers at Slack for platform engineering.
