SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 20, 2018 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- The
Cloud Native Computing Foundation, which sustains and integrates
open source technologies like Kubernetes and Prometheus, today
announced the keynotes and full agenda for KubeCon + CloudNativeCon
Europe on May 2 – 4 in Copenhagen, Denmark. Experts from Adidas,
Booking.com, Checkfront, eBay, Lyft, New York
Times, Norwegian Tax Administration, Spotify and Ygrene
Energy Fund will present on how their organizations are adopting
Kubernetes, Prometheus and other cutting-edge cloud native
technologies. For example, Sarah
Wells, Technical Director for Operations and Reliability at
the Financial Times will be keynoting "Switching Horses Midstream:
The Challenges of Migrating 150+ Microservices to Kubernetes."
After a sold-out show in Austin
last December, KubeCon + CloudNativeCon Europe will bring together
technologists from thriving open source communities all over the
globe to further the education and adoption of cloud native
computing. Maintainers and end users of CNCF's hosted projects –
Kubernetes, Prometheus, OpenTracing, Fluentd, Linkerd, gRPC,
CoreDNS, containerd, rkt, CNI, Envoy, Jaeger, Notary, TUF, Rook and
Vitess – and other cloud native technologies will gather for three
days to share insights around this fast growing ecosystem. Register
for KubeCon + CloudNativeCon by March
9 to save up to $300.
"By bringing all of the CNCF projects and other notable cloud
native technologies under one roof, we provide a forum for
showcasing a full range of technologies that support the cloud
native ecosystem and enable this growing community to come together
in-person for further collaboration," said Dan Kohn, Executive Director of the Cloud Native
Computing Foundation. "KubeCon + CloudNativeCon North America saw
record attendance levels, and we're looking forward to furthering
these conversations and growing ever more in Europe."
A program committee of 55 experts led by conference co-chairs,
Aqua Security's Liz Rice and
Google's Kelsey Hightower, reviewed
more than 1,083 submissions to help create the show's diverse
content slate. The agenda features a diverse mix of topics,
including technical sessions on serverless, hardware hacking, and
service mesh. Other presentations will address operations, storage,
observability, and machine learning and data. KubeCon's customizing
and extending Kubernetes track will feature presentations on
kubectl, APIs of the future, and custom resource definitions.
KubeCon's security, identity and signing track will feature
interactive sessions like "Kris Nova
and Jessie Frazelle Hack Each Other: Valuable Lessons in Securing a
Multi Tenant Kubernetes Cluster."
"Being cloud native requires an architecture that departs from
traditional enterprise application design, enabled by a broad set
of components and communities," said Liz
Rice, Technology Evangelist at Aqua Security. "KubeCon +
CloudNativeCon brings together cloud native users and leading
contributors across cloud native computing, containers,
microservices, orchestration, and other related projects to further
cloud native education, innovation, and real-world deployment."
The community-curated schedule will feature keynotes from
leading open source technologists, including:
- Oliver Beattie, Head of
Engineering, Monzo Bank discussing
the Anatomy of a Production Kubernetes Outage
- Sahil Dua, Software Developer,
Booking.com discussing Scaling Deep Learning Models in Production
Using Kubernetes
- Ricardo Rocha, Staff Member,

About Cloud Native Computing Foundation
Cloud native
computing uses an open source software stack to deploy applications
as microservices, packaging each part into its own container, and
dynamically orchestrating those containers to optimize resource
utilization. The Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) hosts
critical components of cloud native software stacks, including
Kubernetes and Prometheus. CNCF serves as the neutral home for
collaboration and brings together the industry's top developers,
end users and vendors – including the world's largest public cloud
and enterprise software companies as well as dozens of innovative
startups. CNCF is part of The Linux Foundation, a nonprofit
