When working with complex, distributed systems, the art of "connecting" is not a one-time feat but an ongoing journey. That journey covers everything from the essential role of APIs and protocols as the building blocks of connectivity, to the necessity of observability for understanding how a system behaves.
This track features a diverse array of perspectives and stories from experts that have built, maintained, and evolved the connections that weave together to become the fabric of distributed systems. As systems become more complex, we'll provide critical knowledge to help you master the art of connecting systems.
