throughout the year."
A program committee of 91 experts and 30 track chairs led by
conference co-chairs, Vicki Cheung
of Lyft and Constance Caramanolis of Splunk, reviewed 1525
submissions to help create the show's diverse content slate. The
agenda features an impressive mix of topics, including technical
sessions, deep-dives, and case studies spanning from technical deep

and it is an honor be involved at this level," said Constance
Caramanolis, senior software engineer at Splunk and conference
