SREcon17 Americas
(SREcon 2017)
March 13–14, 2017
San Francisco, CA.

SREcon is a gathering of engineers who care deeply about site reliability, systems engineering, and working with complex distributed systems at scale. It strives to challenge both those new to the profession as well as those who have been involved in it for decades. The conference has a culture of critical thought, deep technical insights, continuous improvement, and innovation. SREcon17 Americas welcomes participants from organizations exploring the adoption of devops and SRE principles as well as those with longer traditions and experience.

SREcon attendees want to discuss robust solutions to system engineering problems, particularly in high-stakes environments. The best talks share a team's take on new idea. We also welcome sessions about SRE philosophy.
