What we’re about

We've been meeting for over 10 years, talking about all things Cloud, Cloud Native, Open Source, AI/ML, Platform Engineering, Kubernetes, Containers, Docker, Open Infrastructure, Microservices, and other cutting-edge technologies. We started out 11 years ago as the original OpenStack community meet-up (yes, the first ever!), and we ran the first ever Istio, Kata Containers, Zuul, and OpenStack meetups! We have morphed into a large and very active Bay Area AND ONLINE GLOBAL cloud native software group! We currently feature meetups on all things Cloud Native, including Platform Engineering, AI/ML, Containers, Networking, Storage, Security, and of course Kubernetes! As long as it's cloud native, we're all about it! We are a group of free software developers, users, operators, and customers who are passionate about working together to help make open cloud computing a success! Be sure to sign up for our "newsletters" and comms for local conference pass discounts, upcoming meetup info, past meetup recordings (all archived on our YouTube channel), and all kinds of other good info! Follow us on Twitter @CNPlatforms!
