KubeCon + CloudNativeCon Europe 2019 was held May 20-23 in Barcelona, and Digital Anarchist was on hand to meet and chat with a bevy of industry folks. Each day of the event was jam-packed with interviews, all of which were recorded and are available for viewing on the Digital Anarchist site. In all, 41 videos are available for your viewing pleasure.

To give you a taste of of the goodness that was KubeCon + CloudNativeCon Europe, we’ve hand-picked a few interviews from the event that we believe illustrate what the event is about: helping further the education and advancement of Docker, Kubernetes and cloud native architectures.
