Let’s celebrate this milestone, which will be offered in person in Las Vegas (November 29-December 3) and in virtual (November 29–December 10) formats. The health and safety of our customers, and partners remains our top priority and you can learn more about it in [health measures](https://reinvent.awsevents.com/health-measures/?trk=w.amazon.com) page. For details about the virtual format, check out the [virtual section](https://reinvent.awsevents.com/faqs/?trk=www.google.com#virtual). If you haven’t already registered, don’t forget to [register](https://reinvent.awsevents.com/register/?trk=direct) and save your spot at your favorite sessions.\n\nThe AWS DevOps and Developer Productivity track at re:Invent offers you with sessions that are combination of cultural philosophies, practices, and tools that increase an organization’s ability to deliver applications and services at high velocity. The sessions vary from intermediate (200) through expert (400) [levels](https://reinforce.awsevents.com/learn/sessions/?trk=direct#levels_card), and help you accelerate the pace of innovation in your business. This blog post highlights the sessions from the Cloud Operations track that you shouldn’t miss.\n### **Breakout Sessions**\n AWS re:Invent breakout sessions are lecture-style and one hour long. These sessions are delivered by AWS experts, customers, and partners, and they typically include 10–15 minutes of Q&A at the end. For our virtual attendees, breakout sessions will be made available on demand in the week after re:Invent. \n#### **Level 200 – Intermediate**\n\n\n- ##### **DOP208-R1 and DOP208-R2 DevOps revolution**\nWhile DevOps has not changed much, the industry has fundamentally transformed over the last decade. Monolithic architectures have evolved into microservices. Containers and serverless have become the default. Applications are distributed on cloud infrastructure across the globe. The technical environment and tooling ecosystem has changed radically from the original conditions in which DevOps was created. So, what’s next? In this session, learn about the next phase of DevOps: a distributed model that emphasizes swift development, observable systems, accountable engineers, and resilient applications.\n#### **Level 300 – Advanced**\n- ##### **DOP301 How to reuse patterns when developing infrastructure as code**\n\nThis session explores the [AWS Cloud Development Kit (AWS CDK)](https://aws.amazon.com/cdk/) constructs and [AWS CloudFormation](https://aws.amazon.com/cloudformation/) modules and how they can be used to make building applications easier on AWS. Learn how you can extend CloudFormation to include support for third-party resources and how those resource types can be used by [AWS Config](https://aws.amazon.com/config/).\n\n- ##### **DOP309 Amazon builders’ library: Operational excellence at Amazon**\nOperational excellence at Amazon is achieved through a DevOps model, where software development teams operate the systems they build. In this session, Senior Principal Engineer David Yanacek describes Amazon’s operational practices that he has observed during his 15 years of building and operating services at Amazon. Hear David describe the habits that teams have adopted, such as how teams handle retrospectives, share knowledge, and regularly review operational metrics as a team. David discusses how these behaviors have led teams to innovate to build better tools and make architectural shifts.\n- ##### **DOP310 Enabling decentralized development teams with a shared services platform**\nSpeed in software development requires being able to equip development teams with tools and guardrails for DevOps, security, and infrastructure configuration. Too often, central teams find they need to piece together their own custom solutions or compromise the speed of their development organization in order to maintain standards. In this session, dive deep into the crawl, walk, and run options and best practices for building a shared services platform on AWS using tools and services such as [AWS Copilot](https://github.com/aws/copilot-cli), [AWS Proton](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/proton/latest/adminguide/Welcome.html), and pre-built solutions using [AWS CloudFormation](https://aws.amazon.com/cn/cloudformation/?trk=cndc-detail).\n- ##### **DOP311 Incorporating continuous resilience in your development ecosystem**\nToday, resilience encompasses a broad range of considerations from infrastructure, application patterns, and data management to application building and monitoring. Additionally, after incorporating resilience, it is essential to maintain it in a continuous manner. In this session, explore various considerations for implementing processes designed to provide continuous improvement through a DevOps methodology. Review various services that can incorporate resilience in the development process in a nearly continuous manner.\n\n- ##### **DOP312 Observing your applications from development through production**\nImplementing observability differs at various stages of the software development lifecycle. In development, detailed logging and tracing are necessary to understand application behavior. In testing, logging and tracing are needed but in varying levels of detail and must be augmented by new metrics. In integration and production, it’s necessary to correlate and contextualize large volumes of data with dashboards that encompass metrics, alarms, and notifications connected to internal and external events. In this session, explore the mechanisms, mental models, and tools (including [Amazon CloudWatch](https://aws.amazon.com/cloudwatch/), [AWS CloudTrail](https://aws.amazon.com/cloudtrail/), [AWS X-Ray](https://aws.amazon.com/xray/) and [Amazon DevOps Guru](https://aws.amazon.com/devops-guru/)) that top-performing teams use to observe applications throughout various stages of the software development lifecycle.\n- ##### **DOP313 Best practices for securing your software delivery lifecycle**\nIn this session, learn about ways you can secure your AWS CI/CD pipeline. Review topics like security of the pipeline versus security in the pipeline, and learn about practices to incorporate security checkpoints across various pipeline stages, security event management, and aggregation of vulnerability findings into a unified display.
