+The Mathematics of Reliability
+</p>
+
+<p><strong>Description:</strong></p>
+
+<p>We often hear talks of "scale" and "reliability", mostly based on personal experience and lessons learned. What can Mathematics tell us about reliability and scale? Can math help us make our systems and companies more reliable?
+ It turns out that failure models, probability, statistics and other domains can help our analysis and provide insights.</p>
+
+<p>This talk will present a simple failure models, explain the math behind common practices, introduce emergent system properties and showcase mathematical examples of why things behave differently at scale and how things that work well in small systems can be horrible at scale.</p>

+
+<p><strong>Description:</strong></p>
+
+<p>Let's assume you’ve already had every *Docker 101 tutorial* for breakfast. You’re now ready to take that brilliantly crafted application into production. But wait... first you need to test your container-based microservices architecture. What does the whole DevOps workflow look like? What about performance and security? And last but not least; how the hell do I run my microservices in production, and will it scale?</p>
+
+<p>Let Daniël guide you through the wonderful world of container-based development and running microservice architectures at scale. By attending the talk*, you’ll gain insight into how to bootstrap and dive straight into learning what DevOps workflow should look like when using containers.</p>

+
+<p>Terminating all environments just days before going live and getting back from scratch. We were days away from going live with our AWS Mesos stack until one unlucky engineer ran a faulty playbook.</p>
+
+<p>This talk will focus on how we build and operate the new Wehkamp stack. We’ll start at the AWS level where we have several hundred instances, ELB’s and supporting services. On top of those instances we run services like Mesos, Consul, Kafka, ElasticSearch and Cassandra. Our real workload lives on Mesos, the microservices architecture we call Blaze. Next we’ll go over what happened in the days before we flipped the switch to go live, and the steps involved creating everything from scratch. How we utilize ansible and we’ll briefly touch Jenkins as our CI/CD tool. The final words will describe our plans in this area for the near future, and the improvements on what we’ve seen so far.</p>

+  <p><strong>Title:</strong>
+What we’re learning about burnout and how a DevOps culture can help
+</p>
+
+<p><strong>Description:</strong></p>
+
+<p>One of the most overlooked advantages of converting to a DevOps culture can be the reduction of stress. This could be due to “sharing the load” as a whole team, the feeling of joint ownership in solving a business problem, or many other things.</p>
+
+<p>If you’re asked to support somebody else’s application without any insight to how it was built and what problems it’s trying to solve you’re likely to experience more than a little stress. The same is true if you’ve toiled away creating the perfect application only to see it deployed in a way that makes it unable to perform.</p>
+
+<p>The combination of stress and burnout is perhaps the biggest health threat in our industry. In fact, recent research has found that burnout--and the related concept of ""vital exhaustion""--increases your risk of cardiovascular disease as much as body mass index, smoking and lipid levels. Unfortunately there are also well-known stories of burnout-related suicides in our industry, making this literally a life and death issue.</p>
+
+<p>If that isn’t reason enough to address the issue, we also know from the State of DevOps survey that the #1 indicator of company success is job satisfaction.</p>
+
+<p>In this talk Ken will go over some of the leading research in the area of burnout. We’ll talk about some of the more common causes of burnout as identified by clinical research and talk about how you can learn from organizations with solid DevOps cultural practices to help alleviate them.</p>

This talk will introduce the basics of Pentesting ChatOps, and will discuss the processes and open-source tools (RocketChat, Hubot, Gitlab, various pentesting tools) needed to enable Pentesting ChatOps within your own organization.</p>

+Preparing for the Day After Tomorrow - Test-Driven Infrastructure
+</p>
+
+<p><strong>Description:</strong></p>
+
+<p>With infrastructure and application automation, we have gained the tools to change systems rapidly. However, with increased project size, complexity, and requirements, its is very challenging to meet the time and quality expectations. In order to build a high velocity organization, uncertainty and complexity need to be reduced to gain speed while working in a trusted environment. This talk will introduce a DevOps workflow that helps to establish trust in your software development and release process. Moreover, we will look into the management of divergent environments, from legacy systems to modern clouds by using InSpec and Test-Kitchen.</p>
