Now in its 16th anniversary year, DevOpsDayLA is Southern California's premier conference focused on the human side of technology delivery. We bring together practitioners, engineers, and leaders who understand that great software isn't just about tools and automation, it's about people working together effectively.
Part of the global DevOpsDays movement and sanctioned by the DevOpsDays global core team, DevOpsDayLA is volunteer-organized and co-located with the Southern California Linux Expo (SCALE). We focus on how teams adapt and collaborate as technology rapidly evolves, with particular emphasis on:
- DevOps transformation and culture change
- Platform engineering and developer experience
- Agentic AI, spec-driven development, and guardrails in production
- Cross-industry implementation patterns
- Security, supply chain integrity, and operational boundaries
- Career development and team building
- Modern collaboration practices
- Organizational change management
