DevOpsDays Runbook - crayzeigh/DevOpsDays-Resources GitHub Wiki
Welcome to the DevOpsDays conference runbook. This document is intended to capture knowledge from the community of practice that has sprung up around running DevOpsDays conferences.
Beginning in 2009 in Ghent, Belgium, DevOpsDays events were always meant to be a little different from the average tech conference. They are community organized by volunteers and make no profit year over year. All money is either used or reinvested in local communities. Each year it seems like someone new is starting their DevOpsDays experience, but for some of us, we've been practicing this for years and have MANY OPINIONS about talk selections, Open Spaces, T-Shirts and name badges. So rather than feel like we're doing the same work over and over, here are our collective practices, experiences and opinions on how to make the most of your DevOpsDays.
Reading this Wiki
Like your average O'Reilley or ...for Dummies guide, this wiki has structure intended to let you walk through it front to back as a guide, or jump around as needed as a reference.
