DevOps is Dead. Long Live DevOps
2026-09-24 , Hewitt Boardroom (Capacity 35)

The decade-old DevOps workflow—defined by dashboard-watching, ticketing, and developer context-switching—is a fatal flaw that results in unacceptable Mean Time to Resolution (MTTR). This system cannot cope with the scale and velocity of AI-generated code.
This talk introduces the True Shift Left: a necessary disruption that collapses the feedback loop by embedding live production telemetry and AI-driven fixes directly into the developer's IDE. By moving observation and immediate remediation left, we eliminate siloed insights, enable self-healing code, and free DevOps engineers to architect fully automated systems
