Topics and Tracks
Architecture
Practical insights into building real-world systems — from modular monoliths to microservices, event-driven design, data mesh, and serverless. Learn how to balance socio-technical fit, reliability, and cost-effective scale through modern architectural practices.
Build & Deploy
Follow the journey from code to production. Discover platform engineering and internal developer platforms, GitOps, supply-chain security (SBOM/SLSA), ephemeral environments, Kubernetes operations, observability with eBPF, and serverless or edge deployments.
Data
Dive into the evolving data landscape: SQL and NoSQL, graph and vector databases, streaming pipelines, and lakehouse approaches (Iceberg/Delta). Explore governance, privacy, and how to turn data into trusted insights.
Development Practices
Move beyond frameworks and focus on how teams succeed. Learn about product thinking, Team Topologies, DORA/SPACE metrics done right, developer experience, continuous discovery, and facilitation and feedback techniques.
Frontend Development
Modern UI engineering in action. Work with React, Angular, Vue, Svelte, Solid, and meta-frameworks like Next/Nuxt/SvelteKit. Topics include server-side rendering and islands architecture, accessibility, container queries, WebAssembly, and micro-frontends.
Backend Development
Engineer resilient services that perform at scale. Explore virtual threads and structured concurrency, event-driven workflows, messaging, HTTP/gRPC, durable execution, observability (OpenTelemetry), and strategies for performance and cost efficiency.
Java
Everything about the Java ecosystem: the language itself, the JVM, JDK, frameworks, libraries, standards, performance tuning, and the ongoing innovations that keep Java relevant after three decades.
Machine Learning & AI
From research to production: Retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), AI agents, vector databases, MLOps/LLMOps, model evaluation, and ensuring responsible and safe AI in practice.
Mind the Geek
Celebrate curiosity and creativity. Explore robotics, bio-computing, maker projects, retro tech, playful AI, and futuristic experiments — ideas that spark imagination beyond everyday coding.
People & Culture
Great software comes from healthy teams. Topics include psychological safety, DEI and neurodiversity, mentoring, communication, hybrid/remote collaboration, burnout prevention, and building communities of practice.
Security
Keep security front and center. From threat modeling to secure defaults, secrets management, identity, static and dynamic analysis, supply-chain protection (SBOM, Sigstore), policy-as-code, and AI-driven risks like prompt injection.
2025 Edition Highlights
Over a decade ago, we had a bold research idea: to create a universal runtime for executing many different managed languages. This sparked the creation of the GraalVM project. Starting small and facing resource constraints, the team was forced to innovate, embarking on a long and winding road that ultimately led to the development of a widely deployed product. In his keynote, Thomas Wuerthinger explores the key lessons learned from setbacks and failures to surprising moments of success, demonstrating how unexpected circumstances played a critical role in shaping our journey.
