Technical conference for popular developer open source technologies

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 13 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Cloud Foundry Foundation today announced Cloud Foundry Day will be held on Wednesday, May 15 in New York City, and has opened the call for session proposals. The event is a full day of sessions related to open source technologies aimed at delivering the best experience for developers at companies of all sizes.

Cloud Foundry has long been the industry-standard open source cloud application platform. Now, with Korifi and Paketo Buildpacks, the best-in-class developer experience that Cloud Foundry is known for is available on Kubernetes. Cloud Foundry Day brings the technical community, end-users, and member companies together.

"It's great to see the community come together where people have the opportunity to meet face-to-face to discuss the latest developments in open source technologies," said Chris Clark, program manager for Cloud Foundry at the Linux Foundation. "Our user community is vast and extends around the world. This event follows a Cloud Foundry Day held in Germany last summer that sold out in person."

In addition to the N.Y. event, Cloud Foundry announced a European Cloud Foundry Day will be held in Karlsruhe, Germany in October.

For this one-day event, the Cloud Foundry Foundation joins forces with the community-elected program committee to curate a program that fosters collaboration among attendees and offers an interactive platform for education. The call for proposals is now open and will close on March 3.

The registration fee for Cloud Foundry Day is $50 for the in-person event or free to attend online. Attendees can register for the event here.
