KubeCon + CloudNativeCon North America, November 18-21 2019, San Diego

September 5, 2019 By admin

The Cloud Native Computing Foundation® (CNCF®), which builds sustainable ecosystems for cloud native software, today announced the session line-up for KubeCon + CloudNativeCon North America on November 18-21 in San Diego. Experts from Amazon, Google, Nokia, Salesforce, Visa, and VMware will be giving over 200 sessions, keynotes, lightning talks and breakout sessions in addition to over 100 other sessions hosted by project maintainers.

Returning to the US for the fourth time, CNCF’s flagship conference, KubeCon + CloudNativeCon North America will bring together a record-breaking 12,000 developers and other technologists to advance cloud native computing. Maintainers, contributors, and end users of CNCF’s hosted projects – including Kubernetes, Prometheus, OpenTracing, Fluentd, gRPC, containerd, CNI, Envoy, Jaeger, Notary, TUF, Vitess, CoreDNS, NATS, Linkerd, Helm, Rook, Harbor, etcd, Open Policy Agent, CRI-O, and TiKV – and other open source cloud native technologies will gather for four days to share insights around and encourage participation in this fast-growing ecosystem. Register for KubeCon + CloudNativeCon North America by September 10 to save up to $200.

Conference co-chairs, Vicki Cheung of Lyft and Bryan Liles of VMware, led a program committee of more than 80 experts to review over 1,800 submissions to curate this diverse line-up of speakers. The agenda this year features a plethora of engaging topics including application & development, case studies, CI/CD, community, customizing & extending Kubernetes, machine learning & data, networking, observability, operations, performance, runtimes, security, identity & policy, serverless, service mesh and storage.

“This has been a really exciting year to be a co-chair for KubeCon + CloudNativeCon,” said Vicki Cheung, Engineering Manager at Lyft and conference co-chair. “The number of inspiring, thoughtful and informative submission has been mind-blowing. We feel confident that attendees will come away from this conference with much more technical knowledge and real world experiences than they had walking in.”

“With so many amazing submissions, it was extremely hard this year to widdle it down to the incredible line up we will have in San Diego this year,” said Bryan Liles, Senior Staff Engineer at VMware and conference co-chair. “Attendees can expect a stellar agenda full of sessions that will enable them to walk away with new insights and real-world experiences that will help them deploy these new technologies.”
