what recommendations would you give to folks who live in the Midwest for quality conferences and meetups to attend to level up their DevOps skills and knowledge?
I was more thinking about meetups or conferences that were local to the Midwest area. Any you'd recommend? DevOpsDays Minneapolis is a fantastic event, just curious if there are others.

I don't usually go to conferences to learn things; instead, I go to meet people.
However, the two conferences I've been to that have consistently taught me new things are AWS Re:invent and Open Source North.
Re:invent is pricey (about $1500 for the ticket alone), but it's so big that you're guaranteed to learn something new.
Open Source North is much cheaper (about $150), and it's local - it's just south of Minneapolis, MN.

If you're specifically in the Twin Cities, then Open Source North and the DevOps Meetup are the two big ones.
The Ansible meetup is fun but small.
