Join us for Tapas in Spain and Highlights of KubeCon + CloudNativeCon Europe 2022

Kubernetes has reached mainstream adoption according to the 2021 Cloud Native Survey, so what’s next? The Kubernetes for cloud native applications, as we’ve learned over the past few years, is quickly evolving. While it has brought flexibility that enabled businesses to transform their digital operations, it’s also rapidly shifting as teams look to improve the way we build and operate on top of Kubernetes. These changes are opening a new chapter that is bringing together developers, technologists and operations teams to navigate the complexities of the Kubernetes stack and applications.
Join The New Stack at Cloud Native Computing Foundation’s (CNCF) annual flagship conference, KubeCon+CloudNativeCon Europe on May 16-20, in Valencia, Spain! We’re excited to bring you the latest Kubernetes insights through our coverage highlights.
This year, in the spirit of Spanish culture, we’ll be hosting our first “Tapas Tuesday” in-person panel discussion hosted by The New Stack Founder, Alex Williams with our sponsor, Spectro Cloud. We’ll also be hosting podcast interviews with industry experts and cloud enthusiasts at our booth on the expo floor. Stop by and meet The New Stack team!

Tapas Tuesday Panel Discussion: “K8s after the Honeymoon: It’s Complicated”
When: May 17 at 15:30 CET
Location: Auditorium 3A (3rd Floor Lobby)
While Kubernetes continues to evolve, moving further away from the “DIY” experimentation one we know today, navigating the complexity of today’s open-source ecosystem is challenging when paired with balancing the expectations of the operations team for control, and the development team for flexibility and optimization beyond the multicloud, to include bare metal and edge locations. Join our esteemed panel with Bailey Hayes, principal software engineer at SingleStore, Saad Malik, CTO and co-founder at Spectro Cloud and Fabrizio Pandini, staff engineer at VMware as we dive into the market trends, new practices and answer your need-to-know questions while we dish on the hard realities of managing Kubernetes in the complex modern environment.
Your prize for participating? This year, we’re giving away a $300 Airbnb gift card that can be used toward an experience! When you send us a question, tweet @TheNewStack or ask your question in person, you’ll be entered to win.
