SHOW NOTES:

  • CNCF Announcements - KubeConNA 2022 (Detroit)
  • KubeCon Vendor List

Topic 1 - Let’s start with what was good or bad at CloudNativeCon/KubeCon. Overall vibes at the conference? 

  • 7,000 attendees, 300 vendor-companies, good amount of end-users
  • Good: Well-organized, live interactions
  • Bad: City choice, keynotes, Day1 & 2 pricing models
  • Is this Big Tent 2.0? (Aaron - I don’t think so…)

Topic 2 - Interesting technologies or technology trends? 

  • Kubernetes is no longer the center of this conference
  • Service Mesh, WASM (Web Assembly), Cost-Mgmt, various forms of Security
  • Starting to see fragmentation (e.g. Cloud-Native Security is it’s own conference)

Topic 3 - Are we in a bubble? Lots of companies in each technology category? Will we see consolidation, failures or buyers? 

  • What’s the mission for CNCF - place for projects to incubate with no “horse in the race”, all areas will eventually consolidate down to a few players over time?

Topic 4 - What’s next for KubeCon? 

  • Can it survive as a big event without a central technology? 
  • Will it splinter into lots of little events?
  • Did the CNCF turn this into too much of a marketing event?
  • What’s in it for the sponsors? Especially if it splits into different events?
  • Why do they keep making bad location choices? (Amsterdam 4/20, Chicago - Nov ‘23)
