Reliability isn't just the domain of a dedicated SRE team—it's a shared responsibility. In this track, we’ll explore how modern platform engineering practices and developer enablement strategies are making reliability a team sport.
Learn how organizations are building internal platforms, shaping golden paths, and evolving their cultures to empower engineers at every level to contribute to resilient, scalable systems. From tooling and automation to process and mindset, discover how teams are driving reliability across the stack.
