About this event

CNCF Tampa Bay is a new local group for anyone working with or curious about cloud native technology: Kubernetes, containers, observability, platform engineering, and the wider CNCF ecosystem. We are part of the Cloud Native Computing Foundation's global network of community groups, and this is our very first in person gathering.

The goal for the night is simple. We want to meet the people building interesting things around the Bay, find out which tools and platforms teams are actually using here, and decide together what we should focus on at future meetups.

Here is what to expect:

  • Food, drinks, and time to meet people as you arrive
  • A round of introductions from the organizers and where we want to take this group
  • A short survey so we can learn about your background and what you want to dig into
  • A cloud native trivia quiz with prizes for the winners
  • Announcements about what comes next, including a call for speakers and sponsors

You do not need to be an expert to join us. If you run clusters in production, tinker on weekends, or are just wondering what all the Kubernetes talk is about, you will fit right in.

Come hungry, bring a friend, and help us get CNCF Tampa Bay off the ground!
