Why Most SLOs Fail
with Amin Astaneh
Most teams will tell you they have SLOs. Most of them are doomed to fail. Not because their metrics are bad or their tooling is wrong, but because reliability has no seat at the table. SLOs are useless unless they inform your roadmap. If error budget exhaustion doesn't change what gets built next sprint, you don't have an SLO program. You have an expensive monitoring system.

New to Open Spaces?
“Open Spaces” is a DevOpsDays-specialty for self-organized conversations. It follows the Law of mobility. In practical terms, the law says that if you’re neither contributing nor getting value where you are, use your available form of mobility and go somewhere where you can. It is also a reminder to stand up for your passion. From the law flow four principles:
Whoever comes is the right people
Whatever happens is the only thing that could have
Whenever it starts is the right time
When it’s over, it’s over

Happy Hour Sponsored by Epsilon ASI
Sponsored by
Happy Hour sponsored by Epsilon ASI kicks off right after the last Open Spaces session. Grab a drink, keep that conversation going, and settle in for board games, video games, karaoke, and the kind of networking that actually happens when nobody's watching the clock.
Some of the best parts of DevOpsDays have never been on a schedule. This is one of them!
After a fun filled night, get home safely thanks to our sponsor Mezmo. Use lyft code DEVOPSDAYSROX26 anytime between 6PM - 9:30PM. Your ride must be called within a 1 mile radius of Bierstadt Lagerhaus. Then we’ll see you bright and early for breakfast and another great lineup tomorrow!
