The seventh annual cdCon will be co-located once again at Open Source Summit North America — a conference umbrella, composed of a collection of events covering the most important technologies, topics, and issues affecting open source today.
The event will take place in Minneapolis, Minnesota on May 18-20, 2026.
It’s an incredible honor to chair cdCon 2026. This community has shaped my open source journey — where innovation meets collaboration. Continuous Delivery isn’t just about pipelines; it’s about people building trust through automation, transparency, and shared platforms.
My vision for cdCon 2026 is to explore how AI, platform engineering, and secure software supply chains are transforming how we deliver and operate software. Together, we’ll define the next era of intelligent, safe, and continuous delivery.
I encourage anyone passionate about open source, DevOps, or Continuous Delivery to join the Program Committee. Your voice helps shape the conversations that move our industry forward.
Deadline to apply: November 24, 2025 at 11:59 pm PT.
