Ditch the YAML: Redefining Kubernetes Package Management with Yoke
in-personYoke redefines K8s package management by replacing brittle YAML with powerful, code-defined packages called Flights. Built on WebAssembly for speed and portability, and with Air Traffic Controller enabling GitOps-friendly CRDs, Yoke lets you deploy smarter, faster, and safer. Ready for takeoff?

Empowering AI/ML Teams: A Platform for Rapid Service Deployment
in-personHow we reduced lead time for onboarding new services from a week to less than an hour. We created ACK controllers that helped automate AWS service provisioning, including ACM, S3, and IAM. We created some custom controllers for the authentication layer on k8s. We ended up having a good platform for applications.

Scaling RAG on Kubernetes via KubeRAG
in-personKubeRAG is an open-source project that speeds up deployment of RAG and AI Agents on Kubernetes clusters . This project provides a streamlined method for deploying Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) solutions on Kubernetes clusters using a simple Helm chart. This project demonstrates the deployment and scaling of Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) solutions on Kubernetes using the KubeRAG Helm chart. We provide a practical, hands-on approach to deploying a simple RAG agent, showcasing the architecture and operational considerations for large-scale RAG applications

Using AI with Flaco - your personal AI Sleuth
in-personEver wish investigating security events was simpler - no extended research required? In this session, we’ll showcase how AI-driven workflows can transform kubernetes and cloud security. First, discover how CNCF’s Falco delivers real-time detection of security threats. Then, watch as an AI assistant streamlines triage and interprets those events - helping you zero in on critical risks fast. By the end, you’ll see how combining Falco with AI-powered analysis leads to quicker, smarter incident response with less manual overhead. If you’re ready to modernize your security toolkit and reduce mean time to resolution, join us for a live demonstration of cutting-edge threat detection and AI-empowered triage.
