The Southern California Linux Expo (or SCALE for short) is the largest community organized FOSS conference in North America. This years SCALE marks the 21st occurence, gathering together FOSS contributors, developers, sysadmins, hackers, and everything inbetween. Professionals and enthusiasts alike gather for scheduled and unscheduled talks around a myriad of topics such as infosec, observability, cloud, the kernel, databases, homelabs and other fun subjects.

This was my first year attending SCALE and I really enjoyed it.
