8 Hours in a Dev’s Shoes: Cold Coffee, Red Pipelines
by Zdeněk Heller
A day in the life of a microservices dev. Zdeněk Heller shares what slows him down, what works, what meetings actually solve (or don’t), and what really helps him stay focused on coding.
What you’ll learn:
• What a dev’s day really looks like
• How automation and DevOps culture change the game (for better or worse)
• Where DevOps empowers developers vs. where it just adds overhead• Real examples of blockers vs. boosters for developers
• How good (or bad) collaboration between dev and ops impacts daily work
Find out how to give developers back control so they can focus on what they do best: coding? Whether you’re in ops or dev, this session will help you see how your decisions affect the whole team.
NATS
by Vaclav Broz
Messaging is essential: for decoupling services, real-time UI updates, and syncing things like cache invalidation. We explored the usual suspects. Kafka was overkill. Firebase locked us in. Redis Pub/Sub lacked reliability. WebSockets were too bare. RabbitMQ was too complex to scale and fragile under load. We chose NATS for its simplicity, speed, and flexibility. This talk is about why and what it took to get it running in production. We’ll share the integration challenges, real-world lessons, and what to watch out for if you're considering NATS.
