What is Gitpod?
Gitpod is an open-source developer platform automating the provisioning of ready-to-code developer environments.
Designed for applications running in the cloud, Gitpod frees engineering teams from the friction of manually setting-up local dev environments, saving dozens of hours and enabling a new level of collaboration to create applications much more quickly than ever before.
Natively integrated with GitLab, GitHub, and Bitbucket, Gitpod automatically and continuously prebuilds dev environments for all your branches. As a result team members can instantly start coding with fresh dev environments for each new task - no matter if you are building a new feature, want to fix a bug, or work on a code review.

Julius Volz
6 Mistakes to Avoid When Using Prometheus
Prometheus is a powerful metrics-based monitoring system for the cloud-native world. While it's great for monitoring your infrastructure and services, it's easy to shoot yourself in the foot with it if you're new. In this talk, Prometheus co-founder Julius Volz will point out some of the most important pitfalls to avoid when using Prometheus, so that you can get started on the right foot and get the most out of your Prometheus-based monitoring setup.
Julius co-founded the Prometheus monitoring system and originally led the project to success at SoundCloud and beyond. He now focuses on growing the Prometheus community, started PromCon, the first conference around Prometheus, and helps companies use and adapt Prometheus through his company PromLabs. Before creating Prometheus at SoundCloud, Julius was a Site Reliability Engineer at Google.
Geoffrey Teale
80% of DevX in 20ish minutes
Geoffrey will share his philosophy of DevX, what matters and what you need to focus on to bootstrap DevX.
Geoffrey Teale has been programming for 40 years, a professional software engineer for 25 years and DevXer since 2017. Despite his best efforts, he probably learned something along the way.
