Event wrap: SRE Meetup

Mother Nature set the scene, choosing violence just as our Chaos crew rolled in 🌧️⚡️

But not even a heavy downpour could dampen our spirits for the last SRE Melbourne Community meetup of the year.

Our Chaos Engineering champions took center stage: Shane Baldacchino, Trent Hornibrook (GAICD), and Matthew Coles. These legends have seen it all—from global betting platforms to APAC tech giants. And boy, did they have stories to tell. 📖

The crowd? Old faces, new faces, you all came ready to play. Questions flew fast about running game days and breaking systems properly. Plus, everyone’s favourite hurdle 🫤—how to sweet-talk stakeholders into letting you break production.

Massive thanks to REA Group for the perfect venue🙏, Francisco Rodera for making it happen 🙏, and Thomas Clark for his expert hosting duties. 🙏 Turns out, a little chaos (and a lot of pizza 🍕) brings out the best in our community.

Melbourne’s SRE scene is absolutely cooking right now. That’s why we’ve already got the 2025 burner fired up. 🔥
