What is Cisco DevNet Create?
Cisco DevNet Create is more than a conference - it's a community.

Now in its fifth year, DevNet Create provides a great opportunity to learn from others in the community on a wide range of topics in the software development, cloud infrastructure, and infrastructure automation space. Explore ideas on how to approach design, user experience, and APIs when building applications. Learn tips for increasing performance and security or learn how to design an application to be cloud-first. DevNet Create dives into topics in IoT, Edge and Mobile computing, AI/ML, and how they can be leveraged to increase customer relevance, application performance, or drive innovation.

DevNet Create is a conference that lets application developers learn about, or even co-create, with apps and infrastructure. Discover best practices for working with Cisco APIs, see real-world use case backed by code repos on DevNet Code Exchange and Automation Exchange and learn about efficient ways to use tools, technologies, and sandboxes. Infrastructure developers can explore leading-edge topics like orchestration, DevOps, infrastructure as Code, Secure Access Service Edge, Full Stack Observability, and more.

Come be part of an inclusive, engaging, practitioner-led developer community that inspires and empowers you with ideas that can advance your projects with greater speed and agility.

Why attend?
From year to year, everyone is faced with new projects and challenges. It can come in the form of ideas, tools, frameworks, and methodologies that have to be learned and experimented with to determine effectiveness to a project or organization.

DevNet Create brings together experts to learn from and provides you with opportunities to figure out the tough technologies and explore opportunities to network with those who are already making the most of the new - while getting you to that next level, and beyond.

With a mix of learning sessions including keynotes, tech talks, lightning talks and more - you'll have multiple opportunities to learn something new.
