“Because you never know how useful new conferences will be, I attended the 2016 Microservices Practitioner Summit on my own dime. But the event was so valuable, both the advice from the speakers and from the other attendees, that this January I’m taking a team of developers.”

Bjorn Freeman-Benson, CTO, InVision



“This is one of the most useful technical conferences that I've attended. I learned a lot about microservices from all of the speakers, and have subsequently been able to use many of the lessons in my day-to-day work. I also thoroughly enjoyed chatting to all of the attendees and hearing about others' experiences with microservices.”

John Billings, Senior Software Engineer, Yelp

What to Expect


Engage with Practitioner Speakers

We bake copious time for Q&A into each session so you’ll have time to dig in on concepts with the speakers. There are also opportunities to connect with the speakers throughout the rest of the day, as well as lunch and happy hour.


Network with peer engineers and architects

Spend the day connecting with over two hundred peer engineers and architects from leading cloud companies to swap ideas, compare notes, and get fresh, innovative ideas you can take back to your team. Plus, attendance is capped to ensure the quality of interaction is high.


The most fun you’ve had at a conference

The summit is hosted at the Grand Theater, a refurbished, historic theater in the heart of San Francisco’s Mission District. Lunch will be served from local food trucks, and the day will cap off with a happy hour.
