WHAT’S THE FUTURE OF KUBECON / CLOUDNATIVECON

KubeCon feels like it’s at a cross-roads now that Kubernetes is not the central focus of the event. So where does it go from here? 

WHAT HAPPENS WHEN THERE ISN’T A CENTRAL FOCUS?

  • Is it OpenStack Big Tent 2.0?
  • Is the CNCF trying to define a stack anymore, or just a governance home?
  • Is it VMworld post-2012?
  • Is it the re:Invent of Cloud-native technologies?
  • Could some company be the GTM for many of the companies at KubeCon?
  • Would it be good or bad to have individual project conferences? 
  • Are the pre-event event good or bad for people trying to learn a specific domain?
