What is cloud‑native.ai?

We’re a community focused on the intersection of Cloud Native and AI — from model serving on Kubernetes to observability, security, cost control and data pipelines. We aim to be vendor‑neutral, open‑source friendly and hands‑on.

  • Short talks, live demos and panel Q&A
  • Real‑world patterns for inference, RAG and agents
  • Platform engineering for AI workloads
  • Networking with builders and operators

Topics we cover

Model serving & orchestration

KServe, vLLM, Ray Serve, Knative, autoscaling and GPU scheduling.

RAG & vector systems

Embeddings, retrieval patterns, vector databases, latency & quality trade‑offs.

Data & MLOps pipelines

Feature stores, CI/CD for models, model registries and drift monitoring.

Observability

OpenTelemetry, tracing GenAI, prompt and token cost visibility.

Security & governance

SBOM, supply chain security, secrets, isolation and responsible AI.

Platform engineering

Internal developer platforms, golden paths and self‑service for AI teams.
