While I’ll miss the energy from the packed crowd of over 10,000 technologists cheering me on, I’m delighted that the Cloud Native Computing Foundation/KubeCon North America event this year is more accessible than ever to a worldwide audience. With tickets set at $100 and no travel required, it’s the perfect opportunity to learn about OpenTelemetry and other cloud native technologies from the comfort of your desk, no matter what your employer’s travel budget is. Over the past year, we’ve seen increasing clarity from analysts, vendors and end users, who all agree that observability is critical to realizing the productivity and scaling benefits of the cloud native journey.

Given how quickly best practices are evolving, CNCF/KubeCon offers a great chance to learn from your peers, both about the technology choices required to plant the seed of observability, as well as the culture that allows it to flourish. This year, I have the pleasure of kicking off OpenTelemetry Community Day on Day 0, as well as co-chairing the Observability track at CNCF/KubeCon.
