What is CND

What is Cloud Native Days Italy

Cloud Native Days Italy is a community-driven event dedicated to cloud native and open source technologies.

It brings together developers, architects, engineers, DevOps and IT professionals: the whole Italian cloud native and Kubernetes community, and anyone excited about what cloud native makes possible. Our goal is simple: grow the Italian cloud native community by giving it a place to meet, share and learn, together.
