When your OpenTelemetry Collector fleet grows from dozens to thousands, configuration management becomes a problem in itself. CNCF Ambassador Dotan Horovits shares how OpAMP addresses that. https://www.cncf.io/blog/2026/07/13/operating-opentelemetry-at-scale-with-opamp/ #OpenTelemetry #CloudNative

Most of your observability bill is data you never actually look at. OTTL lets you filter and reshape telemetry right in the Collector, so you only keep what you use. No code changes, no redeploys. Explore more terms in the CNCF Cloud Native Glossary: https://glossary.cncf.io/ #OpenTelemetry

What makes KubeCon + CloudNativeCon worth attending? CNCF Ambassador Sharma Shivlal says it's the conversations you can't have anywhere else. The decision-makers, the practitioners, the people actively building cloud native in their organizations. #CloudNative #CNCF #KubeCon

Guardrails help you understand what an AI agent intends. But who's watching what it actually does on the network? Marko Sluga built a pattern using OpenTelemetry to find out. www.cncf.io/blog/2026/07... #CNCF #OpenTelemetry

Platform engineering was built for developers. Pankaj Gupta argues that AI agents, ML engineers, and FinOps teams all need the platform now too. www.cncf.io/blog/2026/07... #CNCF #CloudNative

AI costs will change, regulations will change, model capabilities will change. Johannes Hemminger and Martin Hafner argue for building infrastructure that can keep up. https://www.cncf.io/blog/2026/07/03/how-data-sovereignty-is-changing-cloud-native-infrastructure-design/ #CNCF #CloudNative

For CNCF Ambassador Seema Saharan, learning wasn't enough. She wanted to give back to her community. That's what led her to apply for the Ambassador program. #CNCF #CloudNative

Jeffrey Sica (@jeefy.dev), Head of Projects at CNCF, wrote a two-month update on Open Community Groups: 289 groups, 89,202 members, 6,024 events, and more on the way. https://www.cncf.io/blog/2026/07/07/two-months-of-open-community-groups/ #CNCF #CloudNative

CNCF Ambassador applications close this Sunday, July 12. If you love mentoring builders and helping the community thrive in the #CloudNative and #OpenSource ecosystem, apply by this weekend: https://bit.ly/4pb2VG9

Running AI workloads across model training, inference, R&D, and internal applications at a major bank is a compute scheduling problem at its core. This new case study shows how China Merchants Bank tackled it with Kubernetes and HAMi. https://bit.ly/3RsEffY #CNCF #CloudNative

An AI agent can call out to almost anything on your network. Marko Sluga shows how to box that in with an enforced egress boundary, logging every request through OpenTelemetry. https://bit.ly/4f97gW6 #CloudNative #OpenTelemetry

Seeing developers from her community lead at KubeCon + CloudNativeCon Chicago gave CNCF Ambassador Faeka Ansari the confidence to make her first contributions. Now she's doing the same for others. #CNCF #CloudNative

Only about 7% of organizations deploy AI models daily, according to the most recent CNCF Annual Survey. There's a large gap between having a model and running it on a continuous release cadence. Where does your team land? Read the report: https://bit.ly/4gYfcM6 #CloudNative #CNCF

Run CNCF projects in production? Your story could be a keynote at KubeCon + CloudNativeCon China this September. Submit to the End User Case Study Contest by July 30: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/JCY6MK9 #KubeCon #CloudNative

National rail operators, banks, and European telecoms are already running regulated workloads on Kubernetes to meet sovereignty requirements. Not pilots, production, with policy enforced at the platform layer. https://bit.ly/3T130jO #Kubernetes #CloudNative

Being a CNCF Ambassador gave chamodshehanka.bsky.social visibility across the ecosystem. He's used it to organize events, contribute code, and speak at conferences. #CloudNative #CNCF

Pulling large models across a cluster can crush your bandwidth. Dragonfly v2.5.0 fetches model repos straight from Hugging Face and ModelScope over P2P. What's new in the release: https://www.cncf.io/blog/2026/06/30/dragonfly-v2-5-0-is-released/ #CloudNative #CNCF

Cloud native has grown into something a huge part of the internet now depends on, and the community is the reason. Check out this quote from Chris Matteson, Head of Sales Engineering at Union.ai. #CloudNative #CNCF

Ever had a kubectl debug session vanish without a trace? Once the ephemeral container exits, its exit codes and session details drop right out of the Kubernetes API. Read the full community article on the gap and how to catch it: https://bit.ly/3S3HYQZ #Kubernetes #Observability

"I came for the technology but stayed for the people." CNCF Ambassador and Argo CD Maintainer Nitish Kumar heard that line somewhere about KubeCon + CloudNativeCon and hasn't stopped thinking about it. #KubeCon #CloudNative

A viral moment can spike traffic 700% with no warning. SNOW Corp. keeps its GenAI running across 1,000+ GPUs on Kubernetes, serving 200 million users. https://www.cncf.io/case-studies/snow-corp/ #CloudNative #Kubernetes #AI #GPU

"The day is made." That was @seemasaharan.bsky.social at 5 AM, three years ago, reading her CNCF Ambassador acceptance email and realizing she was now part of this global community. #CNCF #CloudNative

Ask CNCF Ambassador chamodshehanka.bsky.social what makes KubeCon + CloudNativeCon special and he doesn't talk about the sessions. He talks about the people. #CloudNative #KubeCon

No more whole-GPU-per-pod or hand-tuned nodeSelector rules. Dynamic Resource Allocation, now GA in Kubernetes 1.35, changes how devices get allocated. CNCF Ambassador ChengHao Yang walks through it in this new hands-on guide. https://bit.ly/4v0NQbu #Kubernetes #CloudNative

Being a CNCF Ambassador connects you to a global community. For Seema Saharan, KubeCon + CloudNativeCon is where that comes to life, bringing together practitioners from across the world. #CNCF #CloudNative

This week we're diving into zero downtime migrations from Ingress-NGINX to #EnvoyGateway. Shifting your traffic control can be high stakes. Learn the practical steps builders take to manage this transition safely without dropping live production traffic. Sign up here: https://bit.ly/4wbWVzn

KubeCon + CloudNativeCon keeps growing, but the community hasn't changed. People from around the world meeting contributors they'd only known online, and leaving with a new community behind them. Recap: https://youtu.be/9LhX4ukG8WY?si=IeOzOkjjEeXcQSJd #KubeCon #CloudNative

New guide from CNCF Ambassador Maryam Tavakkoli: how to run a cluster-aware AI agent inside Kubernetes with a local LLM, full GitOps delivery, and zero data leaving the network. https://bit.ly/3QHqvgX #Kubernetes #CloudNative

Being a CNCF Ambassador comes with perks. The swag and discounts are nice, but @IndukuriBhavani says the worldwide network of tech experts is what actually changed things for her. https://www.cncf.io/people/ambassadors/ #CNCF #CloudNative
