Editor's note
The Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) oversees a wide variety of open source projects, including Kubernetes, which took the world by storm after its debut release in 2014. The years since have been rampant with new tool integrations and management styles for advances in containerization technologies, as well as an overwhelming shift in IT infrastructure development.
Alongside a wide range of panel discussions that range from CNCF-managed containerization software to cloud platform updates, KubeCon + CloudNativeCon offer various hands-on exercises for attendees.
The European event will take place from May 4-7, while the North American show will run from Oct. 12-15.
This updating show guide is a one-stop shop for IT professionals and decision-makers who want the most recent KubeCon + CloudNativeCon news.
