 Good morning everyone and welcome to Kubernetes on edge day here in the heart of Europe. It's a pleasure to see such a diverse and vibrant crowd ready to engage with the future of technology at the edge. Today we stand on the brink of a paradigm shift with Kubernetes leading the charge into a world where the edge is not the final frontier, but a gateway to uncharted innovation. I'm Tina Joe and I will be guiding you through today's events. Let's begin by grounding ourselves in our code of conduct rooted in the golden rule cheat others with the same respect and kindness you will expect. This principle supports our collaborative environments. So please take a moment to scan the QR code and familiarize to yourself with the full code of conduct. It's how we ensure today is productive and positive for everyone. Inclusivity is at the heart of our community to ensure everyone can follow along. We are offering captioning and translation services accessible right from your device. Please scan the QR code display here to select your preferred language. Your session ID will fill in automatically. Just hit attend. This way we can all share in the knowledge regardless of our language. As we start, I want to share my excitement and gratitude for being here with you all. Or serving as TSE member of CNCF could be edge and engaging with elf edge has been a profound journey. These experiences have shown me the power of collaboration and innovation at the edge. Today, we are here to not just talk about the future, but to create it. So let's embark on this day of learning and exploration together with open minds and share the goal of advancing Kubernetes at edge. In a few short years by 2025 edge computing will revolutionize the data generation accounting for 75% of the global data. It's an arrow where hardware and software are not confined to data centers, but distributed across thousands of locations. The paradigms of observability, the flexibility of loosely coupled systems and the agility brought by declarative APIs and automation. These are the pillows that Kubernetes brings to manage this complexity. Today, we're not just discussing the future. We're actively creating it. Kubernetes is a critical part of this distributed systems infrastructure already shaping our word. And together during Kubernetes on edge day, we are going to explore and define the role we all play in this new chapter of innovation. Here is the trajectory we all a curve that starts as we approach 2025, a testament to the explosive growth of edge computing. As we charge this pass, it becomes clear that Kubernetes is not merely following chains, but setting them. The future is promising and the potential is vast. It's a future where data and devices are omnipresent and our infrastructure must adapt accordingly. Kubernetes is the key to this scalability, ensuring that we can meet and exceed the demands of tomorrow. As we witness this curve ascending, let's challenge ourselves to push beyond its limits, joining innovation in edge computing to new heights. Our agenda is crafty to provide insights and provoke thought from securing software in unchested environments to bring in IoT devices with cloud native systems. Each session is designed to push the envelope of what's possible. We'll see how Kubernetes performs under various distributions and witness firsthand the power of Kubernetes for AR model deployments. We will explore the transformation of traditional IT infrastructure in revolutionizing rayways. Then dive into the competitive world of Kubernetes distributions with the Kubernetes hunger games. We will also discuss extending the reach of cloud native technologies onto Android OS, a testament to the versatility and availability of Kubernetes in every environment. Don't miss our demo of Kubernetes at edge for AR model deployment where theory meets practice and we get to see the tangible results of our discussion. Before we delve into our sessions, a moment of gratitude for our diamond responses, Spectra cloud and SUSE. Your unwavering support and commitment to excellence make days like today possible. Your foresight in the realm of edge computing and open source solutions empowers us all to reach new heights. As we prepare to launch into today's journey. Thank you once again for being here. The energy, expertise and institutions you bring create the rich tapestry that is our Kubernetes community. Let's make today a day of meaningful connections, engaging discussions and transformative ideas. Let's get started.
