- -DevOpsDays is a self-organizing conference for practitioners that depends on sponsorships. We do not have vendor booths, sell product presentations, or distribute attendee contact lists. Sponsors have the opportunity to have short elevator pitches during the program and will get recognition on the website and social media before, during and after the event. Sponsors are encouraged to represent themselves by actively participating and engaging with the attendees as peers. Any attendee also has the opportunity to demo products/projects as part of an open space session. - -

Gold sponsors receive a dedicated sponsor booth where they can interact with attendees during breaks. The best way to make a great impression is to send engineers who can engage with the community on their own terms.

- From fledgling startups to established enterprises, The Netherlands hosts a vibrant and growing technology community. Amsterdam, in particular, has emerged as a global hub of innovation and activity in recent years. -

- DevOpsDays Amsterdam brings together professionals across development, operations, QA, InfoSec, management, and leadership to discuss the culture, tools, and skills needed to build better organizations and products. The 2026 event marks the 14th iteration, taking place at the Pakhuis de Zwijger in the center of Amsterdam. -

- This year features a single day exploring the frontiers of DevOps. Expect success and failure stories from the field as we examine how AI is joining DevOps teams—transforming how we develop, deploy, and operate software. We'll also explore how platform engineering is changing organizations, helping teams build developer platforms that drive velocity and reliability at scale. -

- The day offers a single track of 30-minute talks, rapid-fire Ignite talks (5 minutes with auto-advancing slides), and "Open Spaces" sessions where the community shapes the agenda. Open Spaces are a cornerstone of the event, and we also maintain a structured track in the main room throughout for those who prefer it. -
