Agentic AI and Security

Agentic LLM apps come with a glaring security flaw: they can't tell the difference between data and code. That blind spot opens the door to prompt injection and similar attacks. The fix? Treat them like they're radioactive. Run sensitive tasks in containers. Break up agent workflows so they never ju.. read more

Why GPUs accelerate AI learning: The power of parallel math

Modern AI eats GPUs for breakfast - training, inference, all of it. Matrix ops? Parallel everything. Models like LLaMA don’t blink without a gang of H100s working overtime... read more

New trend: Programming by kicking off parallel AI agents

Senior engineers are starting to spin upparallel AI coding agents- think Claude Code, Cursor, and the like - to run tasks side by side. One agent sketches boilerplate. Another tackles tests. A third refactors old junk. All at once. Is it "multitasking on steroids"? Not just this as it messes with ho.. read more

How We Saved $500,000 Per Year by Rolling Our Own “S3”

Nanit ditched S3’s PutObject-heavy ingest path and built a customRust-based in-memory landing zone (N3). It cut ~$500K/year in storage ops. N3 grabs short-lived video chunks straight into RAM and only spills to S3 when it has to. Ordering stays tight thanks toSQS FIFO, and fallback kicks in clean wh.. read more

You already have a git server

A plain-oldgit repo on an SSH-accessible servercan double as a lean deployment rig. Drop in somegit hooks- like apost-receive- and every push can kick off static site builds or publish code on the spot. No extra tools. Just Git doing Git things. Turns basic Git infra into a no-frills CI/CD pipeline... read more

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.
