QCon New York planning is in full swing. QCon New York, the international software developer conference that attracts senior technical team members looking for innovator topics like immutable infrastructure, Lamba architectures, and innovations in DevOps, returns to the New York Marriott at the Brooklyn Bridge June 13-17. Last year’s QCon New York closed registrations with around 800 senior developers and architects from the Greater New York area.

All of the trackhosts are in place for each of QCon New York’s 16 tracks. QCon invites leading industry experts in one of the 15 areas of focus for the conference each year and calls them trackhosts. Trackhosts curate and guide each one of our tracks. Some of the trackhosts for QCon New York 2016 include:
