The Future is NOT Self-Hosted

A dev spun up a full self-hosted cloud on a refit workstation—Immich,Calibre-web,Audiobookshelf, andJellyfinall running smoothly onProxmox,Docker, andTailscale. Custom NAS, the works. Cool demo. But it hits a wall: self-hosting’s fine for hobbyists, not scaling. One person can’t out-infra Google. .. read more

4 Ways I am Encouraging My 4 Year Old Child to Help Learn Coding and Use Computer

GCompris, CodeMonkey, Microbit, and Raspberry Pi kits aren’t just toys. They’re a full tech ladder for tiny humans. Start with GCompris to get little fingers clicking. Add CodeMonkey for block logic basics. Then toss in Microbit or an Elecrow kit, and suddenly code makes LEDs blink and buzzers buzz... read more  

4 Ways I am Encouraging My 4 Year Old Child to Help Learn Coding and Use Computer
DevOpsDayLA is Southern California's premier conference focused on the human side of technology delivery. For 15 years, we've brought together SoCal practitioners who understand that great software isn't just about tools, it's about people working together effectively.

The 2026 Lens: DevOps in an AI World: You're working in a world where AI is everywhere, embedded in your tools, requested by your management, and reshaping how teams deliver software. Whether you're embracing these changes or navigating the challenges they create, your experience matters.

We're looking for stories about how you and your organizations are adapting your mindsets, processes, and team dynamics in this rapidly evolving landscape. How did your team integrate AI into existing workflows? What changed about collaboration when AI entered the picture? Where do humans remain critical in automated processes? How do you build the next generation of engineers when entry-level work is automated? What are the real implementation challenges you're facing in Southern California's entertainment, gaming, aerospace, retail, healthcare, and manufacturing companies?

What makes DevOpsDayLA different: We focus on culture, collaboration, and cross-industry implementation stories rather than pure technical deep-dives. We're all about the people and processes that make technology successful in an AI world, not the technology itself.

We especially welcome new speakers, under-represented voices, and fresh perspectives from across SoCal's diverse tech landscape.
