Looking back at the keynotes on Thursday, the last day of KubeCon, I saw them as an exploration of the evolution and future of the technologies that CNCF supports and promotes.

The answer, of course, is that it depends. But the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) announced some major steps forward toward this goal at the KubeCon Europe conference last week in Amsterdam.

The problem: AI model distribution is broken at scale Large-scale AI model distribution presents challenges in performance, efficiency, and cost. Consider a typical scenario: an ML platform team manages a Kubernetes cluster with 200 GPU nodes....

The second day of the conference shifted from the Kubernetes and Cloud Native enablement of artificial intelligence (AI) to other issues facing the CNCF members, including digital sovereignty.

AI is reshaping infrastructure demands. At KubeCon EU 2026, vendors focused on Kubernetes abstraction, GPU management and automation to move AI from pilot to production.

Broadcom donates Velero to CNCF Sandbox and extends Kubernetes support for enterprises, aiming to reduce operational overhead across cloud native infrastructure.

A hands-on guide to deploying Kyverno with Argo CD and enforcing custom policies As Kubernetes environments develop, GitOps with Argo CD has become the standard for declarative, self-healing infrastructure. Yet without guardrails for your deployments, misconfigured,...

KubeCon + CloudNativeCon Europe 2026 made one thing clear: Kubernetes is not just adapting to support AI. It is being rebuilt to become the control plane where enterprise AI is deployed, operated, governed, and scaled.

KubeCon 2026 EU officially kicked off at 9 a.m. on Tuesday with a series of keynotes and announcements focusing on how containers and Kubernetes are enabling AI. After spending a day at a pre-event I was...

In a previous article, I laid out the reasons “Why I Need to Attend KubeCon Europe 2026.” After the first day of the event, I can say my reasons were spot on, and the conference exceeded...
