PERCONA AT KUBECON
SALT LAKE CITY

GOOD COFFEE. BETTER CONVERSATIONS. ZERO SALES PITCHES.

Running stateful workloads on Kubernetes is still where a lot of platform teams lose sleep. Step away from the show floor and join Percona for two relaxed networking events during KubeCon + CloudNativeCon North America 2026.

Meet the engineers behind the Percona Operators, swap notes with platform engineers and DevOps leaders working on the same problems, and leave with a few new contacts worth keeping.
