< 20th Edition • Bengaluru • 27-30 Apr 2027 />

Software Engineering Has Never Stood Still.

Over the past several decades, our industry has moved through wave after wave of change. From object-oriented programming and the web to cloud computing, microservices, data engineering, and AI.

Yet the most enduring lessons rarely came from the technologies themselves. They came from the engineering disciplines that allowed teams to build systems that remained useful, reliable, adaptable, and maintainable long after the excitement surrounding a particular trend had faded.

The best software systems are built not only for today's requirements, but for tomorrow's change. They survive new technologies, architectures, business priorities, deployment models, and generations of developers because the engineers behind them understand that software engineering is not a collection of tools. It is a craft built on judgment, trade-offs, and a deep understanding of systems.

Over four days in Bengaluru, software engineers, architects, technical leaders, researchers, and practitioners come together to share the ideas and lessons shaping modern software development. GIDS explores both the enduring foundations and emerging disciplines of software engineering.
