Level 200 sessions assume a general knowledge of the topic and provide a technical deeper dive into a service or use case. This content typically includes architecture, integration, and configuration of common use cases. Level 200 content provides tips and tricks, best practices, or high-level troubleshooting guidance.

Level 300 sessions assume proficiency of the topic and typically cover in-depth architecture, development, deployment, and migration examples. Level 300 content drills into how a service can be used and dives deep into customer use cases.
