 So we are recording officially now you can go to the next slide Charlie. Yeah, our next call is scheduled for July 6 that's right after the July 4 holiday here in the US. So looking forward to chatting with all of you there and go ahead and go to the next slide Charlie. And just a reminder of the antitrust policy notice here if you're not familiar with it. As Bill used to say we like to keep lawyers out of this meeting so don't do anything illegal. You know the next slide Charlie. All right so we've got a pretty full agenda here, we will have some time to do a QCON EU debrief in the events section so if you have any comments feedback about that we will get to that at the end so don't worry. We'll try to get through all of our announcements before then because we didn't have the main meeting we do have a lot of announcements and updates that you might have missed with all the craziness of QCON so we'll jump straight into it with the announcements. Awesome, and I'm actually going to pass it to you Charlie to talk about our fun hippie updates. Oh Charlie you're on mute. I can't hear you. Oh thank you. It was me just like talking away to my ebbs do flat. So yeah sorry for anyone who was at KubeCon North America, and didn't get to meet Alina because of some technical difficulties it turns out that owls are not particularly good at doing anything, but she is the newest addition to the hippie and friends family of friends policy agent or open project donated her, and we're going to have some swag and some fun adventures featuring Alina soon. And just a reminder as well if you are a project maintainer, or you work for a company that maintains a project and it's graduated you can also donate a character to the hippie and friends family it is a fantastic way to sort of get a bit more exposure and actually do some really really fun creative campaigns with us. And just a reminder as well that even if you don't have a character to donate you can still use 50 and all of her friends for your campaigns these are all licensed under the creative Commons. So anything you need to do is, please just run to attribute the character to 50.io, when you use it you can find all of the lovely characters in our GitHub repo. I realize I haven't put the link here but it is on the 50.io page for you all. So everybody got to take the which fit be character quiz that you are very in cube con were actually that was really successful and looking to bring that back and have some other fun to be things for Detroit so if you have any ideas for free to put them in the chat you can also reach out to Charlie or I just love seeing that program grow and all the fun things that we get to do so back to you Charlie. We have another new program. Some of you might remember the spotlights that we used to do. We decided to spin this up again and rebrand as the humans of cloud native focusing purely on people not on projects or technology, just people. And what we want to do is just tell the stories of the really amazing individuals who make up team cloud native and make this such a wonderful community and such a great place to work. Looking for nominations of individuals and also interested if folks would like to work with us on this project perhaps of bringing more of these stories to life we've got a dedicated email address set up it's humans at cncf.io. At the moment it's just me on the project so I would absolutely love to hear from any of you who might be interested in getting involved a little bit more. And I don't know if you want me to do this one as well Christy or you. Yeah, you want to start it and we can tag team here. Yeah. So for anyone who hasn't been on the cncf.io website recently you may not have noticed that we have a brand new look which we are so excited about this was a lot of work went into it in the background to to really bring the cncf branding and the website experience. So we're going to start to speed with the foundation that's grown as quickly and as large as ours has. So you're going to start seeing changes over various sub sites as well we've already updated the cncf jobs board. We're going to be working with maintainers to get a new contributor sites went up soon. So you'll start to see more of a consistent branding experience, as we kind of traverse through this. Christy because I know we've got a couple of things that we've been doing very specifically on the website accessibility to to really make this website, she much more easy to navigate for absolutely everybody. Yeah, definitely shout out to our web team for really making accessibility a priority for this website. And it is, we are striving for the web content accessibility guidelines, and there's some information here on how that went into the process we also have a blog on this as well but it's just really great to have that as a forefront focus for, you know, making things more accessible especially when it comes to the website. Next slide. Perfect. And before we move, just a reminder that Carla does have her office hours that are happening monthly Carla is our marketing committee chair if you haven't met her already she just messaged me that she couldn't make it today and is sick unfortunately. But, you know, she does host these once a month if you have questions about different online programs or how to get involved more, or maybe you want more of a member perspective of how to take advantage of some of these marketing programs she's a great resource. Our teams here to help as well but before we move into the next section just wanted to see if anybody has any question, comments I know we threw a lot of announcements there at you in the beginning so any announcements or any questions about anything before we move on. So I think we can move on to the next section. Great. All right. So we're super excited. Again, for those of you who attended cube con grab you are already familiar with this we welcome to Boeing as a platinum members is super exciting. We're really excited to have them on board on board, and it is a pun Taylor you're wearing off on me already. We also want to give a shout out to our new CNCF members we have some gold members, silver end users and user supporters. Welcome if you're new here we're so excited to have you for free to say hi in the chat and our fun tracking We have member acquisitions. There, we have missed anything in here. We like to keep track of momentum in the cloud native space, you know when there's acquisitions if we've missed anything feel free to let us know. And we try to keep this as updated as possible so there's a lot in here I feel like we might need to kind of update this slide to include maybe the last two years instead of the last four or five. Awesome. And I'm going to pass it over to Jesse from the PR team to talk about some of our lovely media coverage from coupon. Hey, Jesse. Hi. Yeah, just a super success to still cube cotton from a media and analyst perspective. I just included a couple of the just feature articles we had Frederick lard nois from tech crunch she was on site, and did a number of articles from member announcements and then also this great article. I just found the new national program. So, worth a read and actually you can go directly on his, on his page and see some of the great coverage that he did from the event. And then slide. Yeah, and then this was just another another another great article. We got a ton I actually included on the another slide. But this was a really good one to just with our slash data research and overview of some of the top of some of the different topics from that. And then this is just a quick overview of our attendance the events that we did so we had 159 press analysts from all over the world who attended in person virtually which is just great. It was a really big it was a really big showing so we were really pleased. And we did a couple. Three really great roundtables which actually ended up resulting in some really good articles, which I also included in here as well. Over 60 contributed content placements and 64 member announcements were made at the at the event so it was a super successful tons of coverage came out of the show. And then here's just a quick overview for you guys to have a look at I also sent if everybody's on the marketing alias, I sent a day three recap which has more coverage. There's actually just a global overview so if you didn't get that feel free to message me and I'll send you the overview. And then here's all the announcements we made we made a huge number of announcements. So, yeah. This is an overview if you want to check it out if you didn't see it. And then we'll just pass it over to Carl for updates on analysts. Hello everyone. I'm Carl. I'm with the CNCF analyst relations team if we haven't met. Yeah, so at the cube con we're bringing together a community of industry analysts, both in person and virtually. And so I'm just going to highlight a few articles can't be that came out of that one of them being Paul Nash Wadi he wrote this blog on his perspective as an in person attendee. And he was sharing his experiences meeting with practitioners vendors and CNCF leadership. And he also has some cool statistics coming out at ESG. And there as well that you might want to check out. Cool. And then Kate Holterhoff. She was she was wrote this article on her impressions as a virtual attendee. We did have quite a few virtual attendees this year. And she's in this article she's continuing to highlight the importance of trainings and certifications I don't know if you guys have been keeping track of it, but she's got a fantastic. Three or four articles on industry certification that she's been working on and working with the CNCF leadership on. Cool. And then Michael as off the chief analyst at Omnia. In this article he's sharing his perspective as being an in person attendee and highlights from attending the analyst only sessions. I mean with practitioners and users and vendors and what's cool about this is it's actually a full report that he was able to ungain for the community. As all of you guys, I'm sure know getting getting access to these reports can be pretty hard if you're behind gated communities and he was able to get this ungated for us, which is great. Cool. Here, here's some immediate analysts highlights just a few more. I wanted to pull out just because of the way analysts. Analysts editorial calendars work there. They take way longer than journalists. So we'll continue to continue to see their articles coming out and being influenced by cube con in the months to come all the way up to the next cube con, which is pretty fantastic. So it's it's a bit of a running game with analysts constantly influencing them and hearing back from the community and so on and so forth. That's a cool thing coming out of this. There's one Japanese article in there that Tricia, the analyst relations lead was able to translate for us and in that article they're actually telling readers to go check out the replays on YouTube which is pretty cool. So even in even in Japan, we're getting getting some positive feedback from from the community. Cool. Before we go on, I just wanted to highlight a quick request. Brent Ellis analyst at Forrester. He's requesting to connect with end users and communities and companies that provide SRE as a service. And he wants to talk about what they're bringing to the market. Why clients would choose to outsource SRE and how SRE contributors are. And how SRE contributes to overall enterprise resilience strategies. So if you're interested in getting being a part of that research if you're interested in getting an influencing and being a thought leader on that research. Go ahead and send me a slack. Just Carl right on the CNCS slack and I'll shoot over an email and we can get we can get you guys connected. That's a great way to get in on that research. And then at the bottom we've got this blog from Redmonk. This is the last piece from Kate Holterhoff on her three three or four piece session on on industry certifications is a great quote in there. This is by Clyde Sepperson and just various CNCF leadership she she talked to pretty much everyone and quoted a whole bunch of great people in there so wanted to highlight that. It's just fantastic article. Cool. And then last little bit, just coming down to Gartner the big G. Super active recently on reporting cloud native technologies, and we anticipate to see more and more as the Gartner symposium gets closer and as it comes up and passes. So, and we're hoping to see a broader trend, the broader trend of cloud native getting emphasized for this community as the symposium is closer so we can look forward to more and more as that's getting closer. But that's about it for the analyst community right now. I'll talk to you guys next month. So as we do every month. These are just an overview of the key messages that are pulled through with CNC coverage. Obviously, the con was at the top multi cloud actually made it up there. It's always been a little mid high but that's actually a new ones that really that came through a lot and keep on which is interesting. So that's for your being pleasure and then we have the graduated projects which is pretty on par with every month. These ones on boy obviously for the gateway proxy gateway gateway announcement that you can come. And then and we have two different slides for the incubating projects, which just keeps growing. We just keep adding to these so they're here let's split up over to based on when they entered. Awesome. Thank you so much Jesse and Carl that was a super full update I know you all did a lot of work for keep kind of we were so appreciative of it and Carl really appreciate all the analyst updates to before we move into the content and marketing piece does anybody have any questions for Carl or for Jesse before we move on. If you are interested in the analyst opportunity Tricia, thank you for putting all the information in the chat. I've hopefully reached out to that team and they'll be happy to connect you. All right, well we'll move on. I will go ahead and pass it to Libby to talk about online programs. Hey Libby. Hey y'all, how's it going. I'm missing you all in person. I will get straight to it in May, obviously we had a whole week off of online programs for coupon so we had a total of three live streams you can check out our average viewers and watch minutes. These are still proving to be our most popular program in the online programs and they, as you all know, look up quickest so we are still working on potentially growing that that particular piece of the project for the next Q. And so stay tuned for that and that will be an email that comes out at the beginning of June. I'm sorry. Yeah, next month. We'll be opening the calendar. Thank you. Oh my gosh, more coffee. So heaven on demand webinars. Those views are getting great views in YouTube post event and for live webinars so also driving a lot of registrations a lot of attendees live and still seeing tons of views on YouTube so book those up, reach out to me if you have any questions I'm always happy to chat through any, any questions you have or what might be a best fit for you and not listed here but always a great suggestion or YouTube submissions. And as I tell everyone the thing those are always great to have when you're coming to the end of the quarter I need to use some of your benefits, because you can just link straight from your YouTube existing YouTube videos. It's an easy one you don't have to coordinate as much. All right. Next slide. Sorry, I was just going to, if you are new I know we have a lot of new folks on this call and that are members welcome. If you are new to this program and want to learn more about online programs this is our webinar program that we refreshed last year so you'll notice it includes live stream now on demand opportunities as well as we still offer live webinars for our platinum So Libby is an amazing resource she runs this program if you have any questions or if you just want like a quick tutorial of how this works there's also a lot of members on this call who have participated in this program. A great just lots of great resources we're happy to help and there are some slides in the appendix that provide a little bit more information but feel free to reach out if you have any questions like I said Libby is an amazing resource and we're here to help you so don't be shy. Absolutely. This is our weekly and I'll do it Christina since we have new members on the call we this is our weekly newsletter goes out every Friday, you're welcome to contribute and send any proposed content to the Cube weekly at cncf.io email alias, and we have a group of editors who review every week and publish on Fridays so feel free to send any content over. Again, kind of keeping with the same guidelines, not to sales pitchy but anything interesting that either comes from your companies or things that you found online that you just think would be beneficial and you know relatable for the newsletter so here's just some stats from last month. We're continuing to get a lot of great views. And again, we also took a week off for cube weekly so not for cube con see coffee. Thanks so much Libby and this is doesn't just have to be Kubernetes content either it can be anything related to cloud native. Thanks to the guidelines in here, but as Libby said it is subject to editor approval. So we have a group of editors from the community that help us put this together every week. But maybe also runs this so if you have any questions around cube weekly she's a great resource to you can also reach out to the alias but try to keep that content fresh to so when you're submitting something try to submit something that's published within the last two weeks just on the weekly newsletter we try to keep it as fresh as possible. And if you are curious about, you know, what the, what is in the issues there is a link in here to where you can see all of the issues on our website. So, all right. And Charlie will pass it back to you to talk about and user case studies. So yeah, with the new lovely members on the call just a quick explainer so we run a self service. Basically submission system for our case studies so our case studies, just a couple of rules around them. They do need to be about end users. So if you're a member company so you're building and selling cloud native technology to other tech companies for example you might be AWS. You can write a case study about one of your end users and well of course you know mention you you'll get sort of full props in there. But we do want to keep this to end users. And there's a very, very easy submission process. It's all on our GitHub repo. So have a read through that. And if you have any questions at all, you can reach out to me and Charlie on Slack I will have the picture of the horse. So, this month we had a really great case study featuring Philip connect. And this was super fascinating and it was actually written by our friends at point, who basically built and maintained linked D. So again if you're a member company you can still write these really fantastic end user case studies. And just a quick overview on the blogs what sort of readership we had last month. We had over 52,000 unique views, a little higher than normal. I think we had some big, big announcements like the introducing on void gateway, obviously so we've got more more views than absolutely anything else on the blog last month. We have CNCF metrics available so you don't just have to wait until this meeting to see what's going on on the blog, and also what's going on with our case studies in terms of analytics. You can click on this lovely link here, and you can't. There we go that's better. You can click on that and it will take you straight to basically a really fantastic view, you can change the views, you can change your search terms and actually have a look how your blogs and your case studies are performing at any time. So a quick note on this because we did a bit of work on the website a year or two ago, things over 18 months old you may have trouble finding so if you need super old analytics for any reason just please reach out to me and I can give you a hand with that. And I think I will pass it back over to Christie. Thank you so much Libby and Charlie for that update. Before we move on any last minute questions for Charlie or Libby. Before we move on to events. Awesome and just a reminder I saw this come up a couple times in the chat we're going to open the Q, sorry Q3 Q4 calendar for online programs in early July so beyond the lookout for that. We will send an email and then we'll also let folks know in Slack when things are open. Yes Q3 Libby. I'm clearly need more coffee to just tag. Awesome. All right, I'm going to go ahead and pass it over to Vanessa. Vanessa, are you there. Thanks Christie good morning good afternoon everyone apologies and not coming on camera I've got a little bit of a summer cold. I have a voice here as well. Here's an outline of our upcoming case, Kubernetes community days. If you're interested in participating in any of these. Excuse me I apologize. Please click, you know, check out the list here. We also have a series of events that CNCF is participating in. We're at RSA conference and CD con, and you can see the rest of the events we have planned, we have confirmed at this point through the rest of the year. Next slide please. The next two sides we've shared our initial demographic data from cube con Europe. Hopefully all of you have received this. We will be sharing our full post event transparency report by June 24. So keep your eyes out for more information coming on on the event. You can skip one more side there. And Christie we're going to hold this slide right until the end we'll get through everything and then chat about. Sorry, I think I moved you up too soon sorry. Okay. And then just, again, a huge shout out to all of our sponsors for supporting cube con Europe we certainly could not have had the event without all of you so thank you again.

It says from Connie can we get sponsored discount codes for cube con and a our customers always miss the early bird deadline since we don't get the code until later on. I don't leave Tina's on the call at the moment so let me check the status of where we are in sharing sponsor codes. And I'll get back to you Connie back to everyone. If you want to go back to the slide right after the initial demographic right there. So yeah, now I think we're ready to talk a little bit about cube con Europe. Let's start off, you know just having an open discussion about what if people love about the conference and we'll talk about suggestions but this is really more just want to hear how things went. Unfortunately I wasn't able to be there but glad you all got to be together I was attending virtually. And again thank you to everyone who participated in the welcome video as well as was able to make it to the marketing committee coffee before the keynotes as well so yeah open for for comments now. Hey Renee here from Germany. It was really nice and I guess I'm all right on this picture you're showing so it was an idea of our company I guess where we had a small drone flying through it and staying there together in front of this nice logo for the hugon. That's great yeah I was looking through there were so many great pictures but this one I thought was nice because you've got the outdoor space but that's awesome. So I can send you the video from it afterwards. Yeah, that would be great we also have a really awesome highlight video coming from aren't you that I just got a preview of and I was had even more follow than I thought I could have so that's going to be coming out soon too but thanks. No one else say something so I will continue. We have a lot of partners on the con and some of them asked me. Because of the fact that we have the sponsor on the shirts for the coupon. So there are people from that app and other storage vendors, which are not allowed to wear this T shirt because of the other company as sponsorship on the right or left arm with Fort works. So it's an option to avoid placing sponsor logos on the cube concert in future. I'm the sponsorship of T shirts is a has been a prime MPO sponsorship option. And I, I'm, I'm sorry I don't. Can you tell me exactly what the situation was you wanted to have, you wanted to hand out T shirts with. So it's about the original official T shirts of the coupon. The coupon logo for Valencia and people from that app spot I owe and others told me that they are not allowed from the company to wear them because of the competitor called port works on the arm of so their attendees of the con. And they cannot wear it. And that's makes me a bit sad to be honest. So that's the reason why I want to ask you. Okay, I understand now apologies I misunderstood before. Yeah, again, it's been a really popular MPO sponsorship but we can discuss internally and get back to you. Great. Thank you. Hi, this is Connie from the rancher Susan team. I just wanted to say overall, we had a really great experience with the conference. Valencia was super cool place. And everything. But one of the headaches that we had was with the transportation going like getting to and from the venue. The hotels in general were a little bit far away and would have been helpful if there was some kind of shuttle provided to certain areas and I'm sure that you know has to do with budget as well whatever you know the city and budget can support but anyway, in Detroit, if there's going to be, you know, long distances between the convention center and the hotel areas, it would be helpful to have some kind of shuttle or, you know, more communication with the right share, just so people aren't waiting hours at a time to get somewhere. Yeah, thank you Connie. The good news is in Detroit, it's a very walkable city. The vast majority of the hotels are within walking distance. They also have the people mover, which is an above, above ground tram, I guess, if you will, that goes stops at most of the hotels as well so I don't think we will that issue in Detroit. I think it would be good. If you looked at having if there were going to be another all attendee party, not to have it directly after the day at the show ends because everybody ended up going with their backpacks their laptops, it would be much better if we have time to go back to our hotels and then catch a shuttle at a central location. So you don't have everybody, you know, basically schlepping all that stuff with them to the party and then having to keep an eye on it I just think that would improve maybe some logistics. Okay, thank you. Sure. There's a comment in the chat from Catherine. Hey Catherine. How about virtual booths and discovering those. She says don't really have any great ideas on how to do that but something to think about. Yeah, that's really good feedback Catherine something definitely for us to think about. Christine here from Kubo Matic. So overall we also had a good experience at the conference, but something that I is a detail but what I found very annoying was the catering situation and in particular like the missing water because if you're running boost shifts, and then you need to go away of the booth in order to find water in all of the like refill stations are empty. Then, yeah, it can be very annoying and I would really want to have a better water supply at Kubecon US. Yeah, I totally agree with Chrissy, searching for a piece of water was like an adventure game, to be honest. And another thing we experienced was the bad Wi-Fi situation. And sometimes even the vendors had problems scanning the batches, the QR codes on the batch due to the bad internet connection. And sometimes that I had to was for virtual conference pieces so virtual talks, we were not able to join due to the bad Wi-Fi. Thank you for sharing that feedback. But overall it was really great so. Does anybody else have any comments. Otherwise, happy to give folks some time back and go through the last couple of appendix slides. Okay. Oh, Charlie, can you go back to the appendix. Thanks. Great. Well, thank you all for sharing your feedback. Of course, you know, we're always here if you have more things you want to chat about. And that's great. Feel free to reach out. And again, thank you so much to our friends team for coordinating the event I know that is not an easy task and we are so appreciative of everything and so appreciative of all of you sponsoring attending the event as well and providing your feedback we really do value that. So I'll just go quickly through the appendix site and then we'll give folks some time back in the day to get more coffee or maybe go to sleep or whatever is next on your agenda. I go ahead and go to the next slide Charlie. So if you are new. This is our appendix section of the deck. We have our meeting slides here you can also find the recordings. We just ask that you keep the slides and the recordings to members only so keep that private. We like being able to provide the recordings for you but just don't want them to get super out there. And also we have a cloud native events and CFP calendar that was started by our awesome co-chairs from last year if you were interested in adding your info there. And we have a opt-in member email list that you're also welcome to join as well. And then go to the next slide Charlie. There's also a list of member resources so again because we have a lot of new folks on the call and if you haven't had your member welcome call already. This has the deck for that, as well as information on the TOC different technical groups that you can join. Just as well as the job board link as well that we have. And then also if you are new and you haven't scheduled your new member welcome call feel free to reach out to me or Libby on my team you can find us on Slack too and we're happy to help you get scheduled on that. And then there is a session that Bill and Charlie did last year about building your brand with CNCF this kind of walks you through all the different marketing benefits that you get as a CNCF member, and how to kind of put those to practical use it's a great resource especially if you're new and you just kind of want to hear a little bit more about all the programs that we offer here. And then there are some training sites if you're curious about different certifications how trainings going are awesome training team upstate updates these for us every month so a lot of growth here if you're curious. You just go through them real quick Charlie, I go ahead. And that takes us to the end of the call. Thank you again everyone for joining us today really great to see all of you. Thanks again for your feedback, and we will see you all in July. Bye everybody.
