The best DevOps talks often start with a problem

No two DevOps teams follow exactly the same path.

Some are looking to accelerate their deployments. Others are rebuilding their internal platforms, scaling Kubernetes, evolving their SRE practices, or completely rethinking the developer experience. All have had to navigate technical constraints, difficult choices, and trade-offs.

That's exactly what visitors come to discover at DevOps Live Paris.

They aren't looking for a product demo. They want to understand how teams solved real-world problems, what decisions were made, what worked… but also what didn't produce the expected results.

Each year, the program spotlights engineers, architects, Platform managers, CTOs, DevOps professionals, and technical leaders who are willing to share their experiences openly to help other organisations facing the same challenges.

If your team has transformed the way it develops, deploys, or operates its applications, your experience is probably worth sharing on stage.

Here, real-world experience matters more than demonstrations

Peer-to-peer exchanges remain one of the main drivers of DevOps Live Paris.

Speaking at the event gives you the opportunity to share a practical approach with professionals who are also managing platforms, CI/CD pipelines, cloud-native environments, or DevOps transformations.

It's also an opportunity to:

  • share the practices developed by your team;
  • promote a project currently in production;
  • compare your technical choices with those of other organisations;
  • increase your visibility within the French DevOps ecosystem;
  • contribute to the discussions that shape new engineering practices.

Presentations that leave a lasting impression don't try to convince. They explain an approach, provide context, and show how a team managed to solve an operational problem.

What topics do we want to highlight?

The editorial program focuses primarily on the changes that technical teams are currently undergoing.

The selected presentations generally address a question that many organisations are already asking themselves.

How can you improve an internal platform?

How can we reduce time to production?

How can we improve the developer experience?

How can artificial intelligence be integrated into engineering workflows?

How can we enhance security without slowing down delivery cycles?

The topics of interest include, in particular:

  • Platform Engineering;
  • Internal Developer Platforms;
  • Kubernetes and cloud-native;
  • GitOps;
  • Infrastructure as Code;
  • CI/CD;
  • observability and OpenTelemetry;
  • Site Reliability Engineering;
  • Developer Experience;
  • DevSecOps;
  • operations automation;
  • Artificial intelligence applied to software development.

We prioritise talks that focus on a journey rather than a solution: the decisions made, the obstacles encountered, the compromises accepted, and the lessons that other teams can apply.

Who can get involved?

DevOps Live Paris brings together professionals who build, operate, or evolve digital platforms on a daily basis.

The program features, among others:

  • CTO;
  • Vice President of Engineering;
  • DevOps managers;
  • Platform Engineers;
  • SRE;
  • DevOps Engineers;
  • cloud architects;
  • DevSecOps Engineers;
  • those responsible for platform reliability;
  • Engineering Managers;
  • leaders in digital transformation.

Software vendors, system integrators, and solution providers can also offer a presentation when it is based on a project conducted with a client and provides genuine insights.

What makes a conference high-quality is not the size of the organisation, but its ability to share useful, well-researched insights.

Content that is purely commercial or focused on a product demonstration does not align with DevOps Live Paris's editorial policy.

The proposals that are attracting the most attention

The members of the editorial committee are looking for presentations that provide real value to participants.

The most compelling applications generally include:

  • a clearly explained context;
  • an identified technical or organisational challenge;
  • the various options considered;
  • the options that were ultimately selected;
  • observable results;
  • lessons that other teams can adapt.

Please feel free to discuss any challenges you’ve faced. The most well-received presentations are often those that describe a project in all its complexity, rather than a success story presented as flawless.

The more your presentation helps other teams save time, avoid certain mistakes, or improve their practices, the more naturally it will fit into the program.

  • Give orders of magnitude for costs, timescales and results - even approximate ones.

  • Don't start with an "About us" slide.

  • Don't assume you know the audience: ask them questions or adapt.

  • Don't stay stuck on your plan: encourage discussion if the audience is involved.

  • Don't read your slides - tell a story.

  • Limit yourself to 10 slides maximum for 30 min, and keep at least 10 min for the exchange.

  • Avoid vague answers like "it depends": give ranges and concrete examples.

Meet the speakers from previous years

Every year, DevOps Live Paris brings together professionals from organisations of all sizes who come to share their real-world experiences.

The program features Platform leads, DevOps engineers, SREs, CTOs, cloud architects, DevSecOps specialists, and engineering managers who explain how their teams are evolving their methods, platforms, and organisations.

Their presentations cover everything from technical transformations to cultural shifts, new collaboration practices, and lessons learned from projects involving cloud-native technologies, Kubernetes, platform engineering, and automation.

Because, beyond the technology, DevOps Live Paris is, above all, a place where teams learn from one another.
