The Continuous Delivery Foundation (CDF), the open source software foundation that seeks to improve the world’s capacity to deliver software with security and speed, today announced several updates underlying the open source foundation’s momentum. The announcements come at the start of cdCon + GitOpsCon (May 8 – 9, 2023), an in-person event in Vancouver, Canada, co-organized with The Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF).

The cdCon Call for Papers is well underway and, based on the submissions the program committee just reviewed, this year’s cdCon is going to be jam-packed with amazing technical content and community-focused sessions from project maintainers, end users, and notables in the continuous delivery space. With over 40 submissions received in just a week we were hard-pressed to choose just five to announce early but without further ado… check out the first five early bird talks:
Panel: The Continuous Delivery Paradox – Balancing Business Value with Speed Moderator: Gautham Pallapa, VMWare
Operating Tekton with Secure Defaults Speakers: Christie Wilson (Warwick) & Wendy Dembowski, Google
CI/CD for Data – Building Dev/Test Data Environments with Open Source Stacks Speaker: Vinodhini Duraisamy, Treeverse
Trusted Open Source Artifacts on the Blockchain: A Hands-On Introduction to Pyrsia Speaker: Adam Gardner, Dynatrace
Congratulations to the speakers of these talks!
*If you weren’t a part of the first five – have no fear, you are still in the running for acceptance into the cdCon 2023 program. We will send out notifications for the remaining program on March 3, 2023.*
