An Open Source Monitoring Conference & Hackathon
Last year was an amazing experience, and we can't wait to come back for more. Join us to hear talks from leading open source developers, web operations experts, and associated thought leaders. Find out which tools and techniques are in use at some of the largest web architectures in the world.
Because you care about the tools that you work with. You're an artisan within your team and you want to improve the monitoring toolkit. Oh, and because you understand that #monitoringlove isn't just a bespoke laptop sticker.
You know it! Portland in June is probably one of the most amazing cities in the world. Besides being a fantastic tech city, Portland, OR has some of the best food, coffee, and culture around.
Go get your ticket while they last!
Thank you to everyone who submitted. We had a tremendous response to this call for participation. We'll be reviewing all of the proposals and notifying everyone no later than Feb 15, 2015. If your proposal isn't accepted this time around, please resubmit for our next event.
Monitorama takes place June 15-17, 2015 in the Gerding Theater at The Armory in Portland, Oregon. Our first two days will include a series of single-track sessions designed to educate and inspire. The event will culminate on the third day with our annual "hack day", including a number of talks showcasing Open Source monitoring projects.
We're still finalizing the schedule appointments so please check back for updates.
Sadly, we're out of tickets for the upcoming event. If you missed out on your own ticket, rest assured that we'll be live-streaming the talks and posting videos and slides shortly after the conclusion of the event. We have a waiting list available here if you'd like to sign up for tickets as they become available.
Need to cancel? We'll haz a sad but we understand. Contact us by email no later than June 1, 2015 for a full refund or if you'd like to transfer your ticket to someone slightly more attractive and significantly more intelligent than you. Just kidding, you're fabulous -- please don't ever change.
If you have questions about registration, please contact us by email or Twitter.
We have sold all of our sponsorships for this event. Thank you to all of our sponsors for their continued support. Please reach out to us to inquire about future events.
Monitorama PDX will be held in the Gerding Theater at The Armory (map), in the Pearl District of Portland, Oregon. The venue is a beautiful space, and also happens to be one of the greenest buildings in America. It's the first theater in the U.S. and the first building on the National Register of Historic Places to achieve a LEED Platinum rating. The venue address is 128 NW 11th Ave Portland, OR 97209.
Let's go for a hike! We'll leave the venue after the closing on Wednesday afternoon and head into the beautiful hills west of downtown. After a short walk through the city, we'll find ourselves in Portland's famous International Rose Test Garden. We'll stroll along trails in the hills, see the sun begin to set on the city, and then head back to the venue by 7:00PM. Plan for 30 minutes (two miles) of city walking to and from the hills and an hour (4-5 miles) of hiking among roses and along gentle hill trails in warm, dry afternoon weather. You can preview the route on Google maps.
We suggest either Ace Hotel Portland or the The Mark Spencer Hotel. Both are walking distance from The Armory and have good reviews.

All delegates, speakers, sponsors and volunteers at any Monitorama event are required to agree with the following code of conduct. Organizers will enforce this code throughout the event.
Monitorama is dedicated to providing a harassment-free conference experience for everyone, regardless of gender, sexual orientation, disability, physical appearance, body size, race, or religion. We do not tolerate harassment of conference participants in any form. Sexual language and imagery is not appropriate for any conference venue, including talks. Conference participants violating these rules may be sanctioned or expelled from the conference without a refund at the discretion of the conference organizers.
Harassment includes offensive verbal comments related to gender, sexual orientation, disability, physical appearance, body size, race, religion, sexual images in public spaces, deliberate intimidation, stalking, following, harassing photography or recording, sustained disruption of talks or other events, inappropriate physical contact, and unwelcome sexual attention.
Participants asked to stop any harassing behavior are expected to comply immediately.
Sponsors are also subject to the anti-harassment policy. In particular, sponsors should not use sexualized images, activities, or other material.
Be careful in the words that you choose. Remember that sexist, racist, and other exclusionary jokes can be offensive to those around you. Excessive swearing and offensive jokes are not appropriate for Monitorama.
If a participant engages in harassing behavior, the conference organizers may take any action they deem appropriate, including warning the offender or expulsion from the conference with no refund.
If you are being harassed, notice that someone else is being harassed, or have any other concerns, please contact a member of conference staff immediately. Conference staff will be visible by their special badges and clothing.
Conference staff will be happy to help participants contact hotel/venue security or local law enforcement, provide escorts, or otherwise assist those experiencing harassment to feel safe for the duration of the conference. We value your attendance.
We expect participants to follow these rules at all conference venues and conference-related social events.
