LEARNING
Content at Devoxx UK is grouped into 8 core tracks, focussing on the information, tools and practices that will help you to work efficiently, make great decisions and produce high-quality software.
More sessions to be announced over the coming weeks.
Skills and techniques for building reliable, secure, and high-performing software.
Explore modernisation, AI guardrails, secure-by-design development, performance testing, benchmarking, and defensive coding. This track delivers the tools and disciplines needed to produce maintainable, high-quality software with clarity.
Step into modern Java for 2026: faster, smarter, and more expressive than ever.
Microsecond-latency techniques, structured concurrency, virtual threads, GraalVM-native Spring apps, Rust interop via Project Panama, AI inference with JDK 25, and more. This track is focused on tools, practical patterns, live demos, and surprising tricks.
Design resilient, scalable, and adaptable systems for the modern landscape.
Balance complexity, team dynamics and business needs while applying practical patterns, event-driven and agent architectures, and unified memory strategies. Make better decisions, improve communication and build systems that endure – keeping sight of the people who operate them.
Deploy faster and operate smarter while staying confident and in control.
Explore resilience, observability and security alongside pipelines, feature flags, agentic workflows & DevOps patterns. Actionable lessons and strategies to accelerate delivery, improve feedback and experiment boldly with practical real-world engineering approaches.
Explore the human side of great software: how we hire, learn, collaborate, and grow.
Can we protect deep thinking and mentorship so that AI amplifies rather than replaces human connection? How do we foster healthy team dynamics, champion brave leadership and build more sustainable modern text careers in an increasingly AI-accelerated world.
Dive into modern data and AI workflows with practical, real-world insights.
From benchmarking and fine-tuning LLMs, agent interoperability, and sustainable AI, to declarative pipelines, semantic search at scale, and unhackable databases—this track shows you how to build, optimise, and secure data-driven systems that perform reliably under pressure.
Helping you weigh pros & cons when making smart language choices.
Which language fits your next project? How do concurrency models, performance tricks, and modern language features shape the way you write and scale software? This track offers live demos, practical patterns, and insights across multiple languages.
What happens when curiosity runs wild? Taking you to the bleeding edge.
AI, robotics, quantum hacks, and open-source wizardry. From analysing canoe technique with AI to 3D world-building on your GPU, quantum readiness, and robots that learn as they walk—expect demos, tricks, and inspiration for anyone who loves geeky fun.
