QCon has 15 technical tracks across the three conference days.
Each of the technical tracks represents a vertical conference focused on a technology or trend in software. Often times, important concentrations develop at the conference outside of those tracks. The AMAs are a way to address these microtracks or just to get your questions answered with popular speakers. The idea with the AMAs is to create a space for general Q&A around these topics and speakers.
AMAs are an informal gathering for Q&A. Bring your questions for in-depth conversations with QCon speakers.
