[01]/// Why attend

Less keynote theatre. More things you can use on Monday.

The summit is aimed at the people who build, run and lead backend systems. Talks, a hands-on workshop and time with open-source maintainers all point at the same thing: working better with production.

[03]/// Workshop

Broken Prod: break it, find it, fix it.

Broken Prod is a hands-on incident-response workshop. Skip the slides: you work through an incident the way your team would when production is failing.

It is practice for the moment you hope never comes.
