This November 09-12, the Cloud Native Computing Foundation will once again be hosting its flagship conference – KubeCon+CloudNativeCon. Take this opportunity to meet with thousands of cloud-native leaders, including gold-sponsor Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE), as the community gathers to further the education and advancement of cloud native computing. This is an important event for HPE as it offers us the opportunity to further educate the community on our expertise and support of open source and cloud native technologies.
Kubernetes without another operational silo
HPE subject matter experts representing HPE CloudOps Software, HPE Storage, Greenlake will be available in person to answer questions and offer demos at Booth 145 and live sessions at booth 151.
There will be theater Live sessions for building, operating, and protecting hybrid cloud and AI workloads. Check the schedule below.

Make sure you stop by the HPE booths(145 and 151) to talk with some of our HPE CloudOps Software experts, like Uday Bharadwaj, Luke Davitt, Don Wake, and Karthik Subramanian to learn more about what it can do for you. Michael Mattsson, our storage expert will also be present. KubeCon+CloudNativeCon NA brings together Cloud native and AI experts to solve real world challenges around Kubernetes, cloud native technnologies, and AI Infrastructure.
We’ve always got something going on in this space
HPE has been a proud sponsor of KubeCon+CloudNativeCon for years. We’re excited to be able to share with you the key activities HPE is involved with in the areas of Kubernetes, AI Infrastructure, and other open source technologies. Make sure you stop by our booths. We’re always happy to engage with you.
