Virtual DevOps Enterprise Summit London attendees had this to say about their experience:

• "If you're curious about the latest on DevOps in the real world, you simply can't get better than #DOES, and this year was no exception!" said Steve Pereira, Founder of Visible.
• "COVID-adapted conferences have had a hard time arranging Q&A and networking," said Ferrix Hovi, Lead DevOps and Agile Coach at Siili Solutions. "The DevOps Enterprise Summit Virtual #DOES20 has really delivered on that. Pre-recorded keynotes with live Slack ask-the-speaker tracks as well as AMA sessions have been really helpful."
• "I absolutely loved the whole thing. I enjoyed the talks so much that I just finished watching all of the breakout sessions that I didn't get to watch during the conference," said Daniel Cahill, Software Engineer at Ontario Systems. "Seeing what others were learning in the Slack channels helped point me towards new ideas I hadn't thought of before. I got opportunities to talk to fellow attendees and pages of notes. I interacted with some of those same speakers and authors I had already been learning from when I decided to attend! There were so many people excited to talk about the things I'm excited about!"
• "I've been in person to 2017 DevOps Enterprise Summit London, and I have to say that I have enjoyed this virtual experience more," said Jiří Klouda, Technology Leader, SRE at Cisco Meraki. "It was easier to keep track of what is going on, to engage with other attendees in the Zoom sessions, I had more "hallway" conversations than 3 years ago. And the talks have been just superb."

DevOps Enterprise Summit is a conference for technology leaders and practitioners at large, complex organizations implementing DevOps principles and practices. The event programming emphasizes the next-generation operations and infrastructure needed to lead widespread change efforts in large organizations.

"In any year, I learn the most at DevOps Enterprise Summit. While we will certainly miss seeing our community in-person in Vegas this year, we have put together an amazing virtual event that captures so much of the magic of our in-person event, and some new elements that can only be done online," said Gene Kim, founder of IT Revolution, Wall Street Journal bestselling author of The Unicorn Project, and co-author of The Phoenix Project, The DevOps Handbook and Accelerate.

"I'm so excited about the programming we have put together for DevOps Enterprise Summit Las Vegas — I am confident it will be our best yet!"
