Let's face it: we have slowed down developers with a myriad of tools that keep getting more and more complex. In this session, we will look at the state of developer experiences in 2025. We will look at key tools that have enabled developers over the last decade, such as containers (Docker), frameworks (Spring Boot / Quarkus and the Go ecosystem), and complex tools like Kubernetes and how these tools have introduced a lot of friction points for developers. From there, we will explore a path forward to achieve smoother experiences that reduce developers' cognitive overhead. Join me on this session to learn how to improve your developer experiences moving forward and to understand current challenges that development teams are currently facing in the cloud native ecosystem.
