Hello NYC Kubernauts!

Were cooking up something fun to bring in the Summer months. Join us for a day-time hackathon, capped off by a roof-top social.

Looking to learn new tech, but havent had the time? Want to tryout the latest Kubernetes features? Not sure what these new container tools are?

Well be running a hackathon themed around learning new things & the idea of moving from Monoliths to Microservices. At the start of the event, youll be provided with demonstrations of some of the latest & greatest options out there. Build a multi-cloud cluster on Istio; Experiment with modern, container-native monitoring; And, learn lessons on how to get the most out of your cloud-providers options.

Are you interested in running a quick demo? Any container-native tech is a great idea. Beginners & Experts are both encouraged to submit demo ideas here: https://goo.gl/forms/RaoYMClioVUgeSJt1

If you can't make it to the hackathon, we hope you'll join us for the roof-top social, RSVP here : https://www.meetup.com/New-York-Kubernetes-Meetup/events/261114798
