After two intense days, we will slowly head toward the finish line of Perform - but it’s not over yet! You can still jump into the DevLab and take on real use‑case challenges waiting to be solved. Not a member of the Dynatrace Perform group yet? Join via the invite link.
In the meantime, we’d love to invite you to the Developers @ Perform Meetup - a well-deserved, relaxed evening with pizza, beer, and real stories from people who live and breathe Dynatrace.
📅 When: Wed, Jan 28, 6:00 PM (Pacific) → 9:00 PM (Pacific)
📍 Where: Titan 2301–2303 — Developer Stage
