Frosty Deployments

The Grafana and Friends Kolkata X CNCF Kolkata Community is back with another exciting edition — “Frosty Deployments”, a deep dive into the ever-evolving world of cloud-native deployments, DevOps, Observability and Kubernetes! ❄️

In today’s fast-paced infrastructure landscape, deployment pipelines define how quickly and reliably teams can ship software. Frosty Deployments brings together developers, platform engineers, SREs, and cloud architects to share their battle-tested workflows, lessons from real-world production systems, and tools that keep deployments calm even under pressure.

From zero-downtime rollouts, progressive delivery strategies, and GitOps automation, to observability best practices and disaster recovery setups, this meetup will explore the patterns that make modern deployments truly resilient. Whether you’re scaling microservices on Kubernetes, experimenting with ArgoCD, or automating your CI/CD pipelines — there’s something here for everyone passionate about shipping software the cloud-native way.

Expect a lineup of hands-on sessions, lightning talks, and live demos by engineers who’ve been in the trenches, followed by open discussions and networking with the growing CNCF Kolkata community.
So come by, grab a cup of coffee, meet fellow builders, and learn how to keep your deployments cool — no matter how heated production gets.

Note: Please note that all our events are on acceptance basis. So If you are being selected you will recieve a ticket and a confirmation email.
