Want to level up your cloud native skills? We’re excited to sponsor KubeCrash again.

Platform engineering is evolving fast, and internal developer platforms (IDPs) promise efficiency, but are they really reducing toil or just repackaging complexity? At KubeCrash Keynote, hear Billy Thompson, DevOps and Platform Engineering Lead at Akamai, walk through examples of deploying multi-tenant Kubernetes workloads and building scalable IDPs using GitOps, Pulumi, and the Akamai App Platform.

KubeCrash is a free, virtual conference. Learn from end users like Dima Shevchuk (Grammarly) and Lisa Shissler Smith (formerly at Netflix and Zapier), and take away actionable insights.
