Description:

The web performance and operations community will gather for three days at Velocity on June 14-16 in Santa Clara, California. In this webcast following the conference, program chairs Steve Souders and John Allspaw will identify and discuss key trends and announcements that came out of the event and how they will impact and inform the web industry in the year to come. We'll build in plenty of time for audience interaction; all participants are encouraged to bring their own ideas, insights, and questions into the discussion, from both the conference and beyond.
