We're more than just your basic AWS network monitoring provider here at Blue Matador. We are concerned with all things related to downtime prevention, so we thought it appropriate to publish our own list of DevOps conferences for 2018.
Our hope is that among other DevOps conference lists out there, we can help you find ones that have tracks specifically pertaining to logging, monitoring, and ultimately preventing downtime.
