THERE’S SOMETHING FOR (MOSTLY EVERYBODY). EVERYBODY WILL HAVE A DIFFERENT VIEWPOINT ON THE SHOW.

• Kubernetes is mainstream for this audience. Now they are dealing with next-gen challenges beyond Kubernetes.
• Lots of Observability usage (and vendors)
• Lots of cloud cost-management (vendors), and talk that cloud providers would start pushing that message in 2023.
• Service mesh drew a lot of interest. Between Ambient Mesh, Ciliium Mesh and Linkerd
• Large European customers seem to be slightly behind the rest of the world in terms of adoption, but they were eager to engage at this point in time. 
• Data sovereignty (local countries) is a big concern in Europe, so it was interesting to hear how companies are dealing with those
