Cloud Native Now: One for the Road
Remember when “cloud native” meant shiny hyperscaler services? Those days are behind us. These days, you’ll find cloud-native tech running at the edge, powering bare-metal servers, humming in your data center, cruising through private clouds, and yes — even thriving in public clouds. Kubernetes is no longer a buzzword — it’s omnipresent. Observability tools have gone from “nice-to-have” to table stakes. Microservices aren’t futuristic — they’re the standard architecture.
Cloud native is no longer just a deployment style; it’s the platform engineering foundation, the backbone of modern DevOps. Internal platforms built atop Kubernetes, GitOps workflows and self-service SRE practices? That’s not niche — that’s the norm.
Need proof? Look at McDonald’s checkout systems running Kubernetes clusters at the edge of every store. Or enterprise banks using observability platforms like Dynatrace or Grafana to monitor distributed services across public and private clouds with AI-powered anomaly detection. The examples are everywhere because cloud-native isn’t just a layer — it’s the fabric of modern platforms.
Join Us October 30: Cloud Native Now — One for the Road
We’re hitting the road again — virtually speaking — with our annual Cloud Native Now: One for the Road event on October 30, 2025, from 9:00 am to 3:00 pm ET .
Here’s the deal:
- It’s free, 100% virtual, and built for practitioners and leaders across platform engineering, DevOps and cloud-native operations.
- Expect inspiring keynotes, deep technical sessions, and real-world case studies — from GitOps to platform engineering to observability.
- Hit that Register Now button today, and stay tuned — speakers will be announced next week.
So, grab your hat, put on your shades and come thirsty for cloud-native insights. We’ll be pouring nonstop; all you need to do is show up.
Sneak Peek: KubeCon + CloudNativeCon Atlanta
The road doesn’t end with October 30. We’ll be giving attendees a first look at what’s coming in KubeCon + CloudNativeCon Atlanta this November.
Expect teasers of key speakers, themes and sessions. More importantly? Techstrong.TV will be onsite broadcasting LIVE from KubeCon, bringing the energy, interviews, and breakouts straight to you — even if thousands of miles away.
Interested in being part of that coverage? Or want to showcase your company or projects — either at the virtual roadshow or on the ground in Atlanta? Reach out, and let’s make it happen.
The Rolling Skates Metaphor: Stay Agile and Mobile
Here’s the thing: Cloud Native Now is mobile and omnipresent, just like the technology it covers. To keep up, you’ll need to put on your roller skates — stay light, stay agile.
