What
Ever wanted to get more out of a Meetup?
Ignite talks and Open Spaces allow you to learn about the work of a large number of colleagues across the community with similar interests in a relatively short period of time. Ignite talks will spark new conversations and collaborations across all attendees Come share with all of us about tools, processes, tips, tricks, war stories, whatever… make us laugh, make us cry, show us how to be more awesome…
Open Spaces are literally what the Devopsdays conference series was founded on. They are a key element of the Devopsdays experience. It’s time for you, the attendee; to start a conversation for a topic you are passionate about with other attendees. ( something to share? a question you have? something you want to learn?)

February 6th - Thursday 2020 6:00 pm
Where
Esfera Building: Amado Nervo 2200, edificio Esfera Piso 6, Jardines del Sol, 45050 Zapopan, Jalisco. Wizeline Offices
CFP Description
If you have a strong devops-related message that you really want to share with the DevOps world, we encourage you to send us a proposal for an Ignite presentation.
Tell us about tools, processes, tips, tricks, war stories, whatever… make us laugh, make us cry, show us how to be more awesome… The only rule is don’t give a straight sales pitch. That’s not even a rule we’ll enforce, everyone will just think you are uncool… that is punishment enough.
We are looking for 10 DevOps practitioners who want to tell their story and to talk about things they are passionate about in a 5 min window. These are the topics.
Topics
- Serverless
- Health, stress, and burnout
- Organization/delivery culture
- Test design and automated testing
- DevOps in the enterprise
- Automation (e.g. CI/CD)
- Containerization and Orchestration
- Monitoring and alerting
- Microservices
- Infrastructure as code
- Version Control
- Diagnostics and Analytics
- DevSecOps
- Chaos engineering practices
- Fullstack tracing
General Tips & Tricks
Choosing talks is part art, part science; here are some factors we consider when trying to assemble the best possible program for our local audience:
- broad appeal: How will your talk play out in a room of people with a variety of backgrounds? Technical deep dives need more levels to provide value for the whole room, some of whom might not use your specific tool.
- new local presenters: You are the only one who can tell your story. We are very interested in the challenges and successes being experienced in our local area. We are happy to provide guidance/coaching for new speakers upon request.
- under-represented voices: We want to hear all voices, including those that may speak less frequently at similar events. Whether you’re in a field not typically thought of as a technology field, you’re in a large, traditional organization, or you’re the only person at your organization with your background, we are interested in your unique experience.
- original content: We will consider talks that have already been presented elsewhere, but we prefer talks that the local area isn’t likely to have already seen.
- no third-party submissions: This is a small community-driven event, and speakers need to be directly engaged with the organizers and attendees. If a PR firm or your marketing department is proposing the talk, you’ve already shown that as a speaker you’re distant from the process.
