Be Part of Something Big – Speak at Monster Scale Summit

Share your “extreme scale engineering” expertise with ~20K like-minded engineers Whether you’re designing, implementing, or optimizing systems that are pushed to their limits, we’d love to hear about your most impressive achievements and lessons learned – at Monster Scale Summit 2026. Become a Monster Scale Summit Speaker What’s Monster Scale Summit? Monster Scale Summit is a technical conference that connects the community of people working on performance-sensitive data-intensive applications. Engineers, architects, and SREs from gamechangers around the globe will be gathering virtually to explore “monster scale” challenges with respect to extreme levels of throughput, data, and global distribution. It’s a lot like P99 CONF (also hosted by ScyllaDB) – a two-day event that’s free, fully virtual, and highly interactive. The core difference is that it’s focused on extreme scale engineering vs. all things performance. Last time, we hosted industry giants like Kelsey Hightower, Martin Kleppmann, Discord, Slack, Canva… Browse past sessions Details please! When: March 11 + 12 Where: Wherever you’d like! It’s intentionally virtual, so you can present and interact with attendees from anywhere around the world. Topics: Core topics include distributed databases, streaming and real-time processing, intriguing system designs, methods for balancing latency/concurrency/throughput, SRE techniques proven at scale, and infrastructure built for unprecedented demands. What we’re looking for: We welcome a broad range of talks about tackling the challenges that arise in the most massive, demanding environments. The conference prioritizes technical talks sharing first-hand experiences. Sessions are just 18-20 minutes – so consider this your TED Talk debut! Share your ideas
