Quality over quantity
We care more about original, thoughtful content than just filling slots.
If you have something genuinely useful or interesting to share, we’d love to have you as a speaker.
Sales pitches
It’s totally fine to highlight your product, framework, or service.
But straight-up sales pitches—especially reused ones—won’t make the cut.
Inclusivity
We welcome speakers from every background and experience level.
If you’d like to speak but need support or accommodations, let us know. We’ll do what we can to help.
Be nice!
We won’t publish anything offensive or disrespectful.
We’re here to learn, share, and have fun, let’s keep it that way.
CFP Description
Conf42 Cloud Native 2026
First things first, please watch the CFP tips and tricks video - 5 minutes. It will increase your chances of having your talk accepted.
Let’s talk about what it really means to go cloud native.
If you spend your days building with containers, running Kubernetes, optimizing workloads, or trying to keep cloud costs under control, this event’s for you.
We’ll dig into what’s working (and what’s not) in the world of cloud native tech:
- Real-world stories from Kubernetes and container deployments
- Smarter ways to do observability, scaling, and resilience
- Cloud security, cost management, and performance tuning
- Platform engineering and developer experience in the cloud
- Hybrid and multi-cloud strategies that actually work
- Tools and frameworks that make running apps in the cloud simpler
- Lessons learned from outages, migrations, and messy upgrades
Come hang out with people who build, break, and fix in the cloud every day. Share what you’ve learned and pick up a few ideas to make your next deployment smoother.
For any questions and suggestions, please join our Discord server!
Hope to see you there,
Mark
