Registrations are going very quickly. We’ve sold nearly half the available places. Historically, registrations accelerate in the first half of January so don’t wait too long before booking or you may be disappointed.
Another tranche of alumni discount places were made available at the beginning of January but there are only 25 of them so if you want one book your place very soon.
One new feature of Summit for 2018 is Iron Scripter - http://ironscripter.
The schedule for the 2018 Summit still needs a little bit of polishing to finish it but it’s taking shape. I’ve started releasing information on sched.com that we’re using for all our scheduling needs for the Summit. The one and only truth regarding the sessions and their times can be found at https://powershelldevopsglobalsummit2018.sched.com/ I’ll be adding sessions over the next few days so keep checking.
I’m really excited about the schedule for the 2018 Summit.
The call for topics is closing 1 October at 23:59 GMT. We’ve had a fantastic set of submissions. Creating an agenda for the 2018 Summit is going to be very difficult because we’ve had so many fantastic sessions submitted and I don’t have enough slots to take them all.
The call for topics is hosted by papercall.io – highly recommended – and the cut off is automatic.
I WILL NOT ACCEPT ANY SESSIONS SUBMITTED AFTER THE CUT OFF DATE.
We have started the acceptance process for the sessions to be presented at the 2018 Summit. Those currently accepted sessions are listed in the brochure
The deadline for submissions still remains as 2 October 2017
We’ll probably be formally accepting a number of other sessions during September BUT the bulk of the agenda won’t be finalised until after the deadline closes.
You still have plenty of time to get your submissions into the system.
I’ve decided to bring #PSBlogWeek back! Brush off those PowerShell blogs and grease up those typing fingers….wait..don’t do that but at least stretch a little bit. If you’d like to write a great article on PowerShell on your blog to help contribute great content and get yourself some notoriety, #PSBlogWeek is how it’s done.
For full details, head over to my blog where I’ve outlined everything or head directly over to psblogweek.
The PowerShell and DevOps Global Summit 2018 will be returning to the Meydenbauer center, Bellevue WA on 9-12 April 2018. PowerShell, and DevOps, experts from all over the world, including PowerShell team members, will once again join together to discuss and learn about maximizing PowerShell in the workplace in fast-paced, knowledge packed presentations. The Summit’s also the place to explore and further your knowledge of DevOps principles and practices in a Windows environment, make new connections, learn new techniques, and offer something to your peers and colleagues.
Automation and scripting has become a major part of IT in recent years. And PowerShell has played a giant role in the progression of that. Every year, the wonderful people at PowerShell.org put on the PowerShell + DevOps Global Summit, that always produces outstanding results from amazing speakers and attendees.
As many of you in IT know, convincing your manager to attend conferences usually depends on a few key factors: Cost and budget, content, and sometimes, experience or seniority in the company.
The planning for Summit 2018 has started – to be honest it started before Summit 2017 opened. We’ve reached the stage where we need to start thinking about the broad topics for PowerShell Summit 2018.
What do you want to hear about? Not the session titles, content and speakers but the broad areas of content you want us to include. We can’t actually promise to cover everything requested because we’re dependent on whats submitted when we open our call for topics towards the end of the month.
