We are excited to announce the grand return of Cloud Native Melbourne with our first meetup of 2026! Join us on March 24th at Community Hub at The Dock from 5:30 pm as we dive into the captivating world of Internal Dev Platform, Open Source and AI. This event is designed for enthusiasts and professionals ready to deepen their understanding of how to effectively manage applications at scale.

About This Event We are happy to announce our first event of 2026. Join us as we explore new ways to build and manage software using open-source tools and Artificial Intelligence (AI).

This event is for anyone who wants to learn how to make their daily technology work faster and easier. You will learn from two experts, see real examples, and meet other tech workers in Melbourne.

What You Will Learn

Session 1: Build Tools for Your Team Speaker: Kanchana Wickremasinghe, VP & Field CTO at WSO2

An Internal Developer Platform (IDP) is a set of tools that helps other developers do their jobs faster without asking for help. Kanchana will show you how to build one using a free, open-source tool called OpenChoreo.

He will explain why these platforms are very important right now, especially as AI grows so fast. He will also do a live demonstration to show you exactly how it works.

Session 2: Test Your Code in Seconds Speaker: Dan Baker, Solutions Engineer at MetalBear

Testing a small piece of a large software system can take a long time. Dan will show you how to solve this using a tool called mirrord. This tool connects your local computer directly to the cloud.

Instead of waiting hours to see if your code works, you can test it in seconds. This speeds up your work, helps you write better code, and costs less money.
