MVP Summit & KubeCon \u2013 Two Weeks Full of Cloud-Native Technology and Community Highlights<\/p>\n

<\/h1><\/div>

<\/div><\/p>\n\n\n

What happens when you send two of your colleagues to attend two of the most exciting events in the cloud-native world? You get a lot of insights, learnings, and fun stories to share. That’s what happened when Philip Welz<\/a> and Nico Meisenzahl<\/a> traveled from Germany to the US and France to join the MVP Summit in Seattle and the KubeCon EU in Paris last month within two weeks. In this post, we will give you a glimpse of their journey and the highlights they picked from the 153 posts they shared in our internal “MVP Summit & KubeCon diary” thread.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Also, when you’re traveling around the world for two weeks and attending two major conferences, there’s a good chance you’ll get sick – which is why this post arrives a little late. \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n\n\n\n

MVP Summit<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Our first destination of our two-week journey was Seattle, or more precisely, the Microsoft HQ in Redmond. As the whole MVP Summit<\/a> is fully under NDA (Non-disclosure agreement) we can’t share any details. But there is a bright future ahead of us! Microsoft is planning some great things in the space of AI, Azure Kubernetes Service, and other areas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition to attending sessions of the Product Groups, we were also able to schedule some 1-1 meetings with the AKS Engineers and Product Managers to provide feedback and discuss some future topics and ideas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Apart from the official agenda, we had a lot of fun (and parties) with our fellow MVP colleagues. \ud83c\udf89<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After that, we headed to Paris for KubeCon. However, KubeCon is not just a single event. It’s rather a week with many other events happening around it. Here is a brief summary of the whole week: Bonjour!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cloud Native Rejekts<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Cloud Native Rejekts<\/a> is the place to be prior KubeCon! It’s an awesome community event, mainly driven by Microsoft Azure, giving a second chance to the many wonderful, but rejected, talks from KubeCon. This year Rejekts took place in an e-sport location and had about 200 people from the community joining to hear some amazing talks and have a conversation – with quality coffee always accessible. \u2615<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Azure Day with Kubernetes<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The must-attend event for anyone in the Azure and Azure Kubernetes Service ecosystem. It is the perfect opportunity to talk to AKS product managers and engineers. This year, the event was held at a location befitting its status \ud83d\ude09. Azure Day with Kubernetes is also the day of new features and announcements. Here you can find a summary of the most important ones:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
