Comments: I think you should try to rephrase "most", "significant" and "annual" (eg to avoid it is closed as an opinion based question). Eg: just omit all 3 words? Be aware: there are such conferences that are not exactly "annual" (eg: every 18 months ...) Also, try to describe the "relationship" (as per your "related". PS: Devops or DevOps?

Comments: Ok, that helps. But I'm wondering how long this list of conferences is going to be. If I google on "devops conference" I get 50.000+ hits. I am in favor of community-wiki list questions as long as the lists are relatively short. For questions with long lists and/or lists that change rapidly I'm against.

Comments: I agree with @THelper. I don't think this question is suitable for a Q&A format. There's just too many answers, too much location specific and events could rapidly change (no use for future readers unless well maintained).

  [Velocity Conference](https://conferences.oreilly.com/velocity) is one of the most popular Devops conferences, and also is an O'Reilly conference.
  
  From it's website:
  
  > At Velocity, systems, site reliability, and systems engineers, systems
  > architects, and application developers learn to build and manage fast,
  > resilient, and highly available websites and apps.
  
  The videos of the conference are present on [O'Reilly's youtube channel](https://www.youtube.com/user/OreillyMedia/search?query=velocity).
