Technical conference for popular developer open source technologies

SAN FRANCISCO, June 4, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Cloud Foundry Foundation today announced a Cloud Foundry Day European event will be held on Wednesday, October 9 in Karlsruhe, Germany, 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.

"Last year's event in Germany was a huge success and sold out in-person," said Chris Clark, Program Manager for Cloud Foundry at the Linux Foundation. "We're looking forward to this next gathering to come together and propel the next advances in Cloud Foundry open source technologies."

Cloud Foundry Day EU 2024 will complement the N.Y. event in May with entirely different speakers and sessions.

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 July 14.

"The Cloud Foundry presence in the EU is massive, and we'll have a great mix of end-users, contributors, and maintainers to cater to at this event. A cross-section of engineering, business, and on-field talent makes for diverse attendance," said Ram Iyengar, Chief Evangelist at the Cloud Foundry Foundation.

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.
