A livestream look at the future of cloud native from an infrastructure lens: from provisioning and securing to monitoring and optimizing. 

GIFEE Day

This event has finished

At GIFEE Day, we’ll look at the future of cloud native from an infrastructure lens: from provisioning and securing to monitoring and optimizing.

In 2016, Alex Polvi at CoreOS coined the term “GIFEE” (Google’s Infrastructure for Everyone Else) to describe the benefits unlocked by containers at scale: agility, secure, efficiency, and reliability. Five years in, the cloud native vision has thrived beyond the wildest of imaginations. So what's next for GIFEE? Hardware. While cloud native software and management practices have proliferated, “next level” innovation increasingly depends on having specialized hardware in the right place at the right time.

GIFEE Day will be available to all KubeCon EU attendees. Programming will include 8 sessions, presented in a livestream format by diverse community members and hosted by Equinix Metal and its co-sponsors.
