What we’re about
A group for people interested in talking about and hacking on Kubernetes, Google’s solution for scheduling and orchestrating containers at scale. We’re excited about microservices, containers, the distributions that run them and the solutions that deploy, manage, and extend them. Any skill level is welcome; we’re all new to Kubernetes and we want to create an open, welcoming environment for other Kubernauts. Contact us if you are interested in speaking at or sponsoring the meet-up. We welcome content and demos.

Speakers & topics
1. Software Supply Chain, with Patrick SmythDo you pull images from DockerHub? You need control and visibility into your container images and their dependencies, and this is not only for regulated or secure environments. This talk will cover the concerns you should be watching for.
2. AI for All: Unleashing Private AI with an Open-Source Framework, with Dan Donahue
Discover a ChatGPT-like experience powered by your data, running securely on your Kubernetes infrastructure.
I'll be demonstrating and talking about the Open WebUI framework for Ollama. Ollama is an open-source platform for running LLMs locally on your cluster. I'll demo it on a GKE cluster as a nod to our gracious hosts!
