The Path to Kubestronaut: Navigating KubeCon and KCDs

Growth is a team sport. CNCF convenes the cloud native community to help you reach your next milestone—like Istvan from Accenture, who leveraged both KubeCons and KCDs on his path to becoming a Kubestronaut. 🚀 But not every event is built for the same goal. 🧭 KubeCon + CloudNativeCon provides the breadth and global momentum to see the future of the industry. It’s about the "Big Picture." 📍 KCDs provide the intimacy and local connection to solve real-world problems with the people you can actually grab coffee with next week. We need both the flagship energy and the local continuity to keep moving forward. Which signal do you need for your next step?
