The 𝗖𝗡𝗖𝗙 𝗧𝗲𝗰𝗵𝗻𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗹 𝗔𝗱𝘃𝗶𝘀𝗼𝗿𝘆 𝗚𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗽𝘀 (TAGs) play a vital role in shaping the future of cloud native.

Another fruitful KubeCon — this time in Amsterdam! I had a wonderful time presenting across 𝗳𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝘀𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀: - Opening remarks for Cloud Native AI Day - KServe project lightning session - @kubernetes.io AI Conformance Program updates - @cncf.io TAG Workloads Foundation updates

In case you missed it, 𝗞𝘂𝗯𝗲𝗿𝗻𝗲𝘁𝗲𝘀 𝗔𝗜 𝗣𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺 was highlighted again on the keynote stage. Check out the announcement from CNCF: www.cncf.io/announcement...

It was fantastic to see the 𝗞𝗦𝗲𝗿𝘃𝗲 𝗯𝗼𝗼𝘁𝗵 buzzing with community members. The energy from the community continues to grow every KubeCon. Already looking forward to the next one!

Beyond the sessions, I had the opportunity to connect with partners and collaborators across many organizations and hear valuable 𝗲𝗻𝗱-𝘂𝘀𝗲𝗿 𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗿𝗶𝗲𝘀. These conversations always provide important insights and inspiration for what’s next.

Slides (and recordings soon) are available here: github.com/terrytangyua... It was also great to attend the 𝗠𝗮𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗶𝗻𝗲𝗿 𝗦𝘂𝗺𝗺𝗶𝘁 for the first time and finally be part of the group photo!

We also discussed how community members can get involved. 📑 Slides (link to recording will also be available soon): https://github.com/terrytangyuan/public-talks/tree/main/talks/kubecon-europe-2026#explore-tag-workloads-foundation-advancing-cloud-native-execution-from-core-runtime-to-applications

We’re excited to share updates from the 𝗧𝗔𝗚 𝗪𝗼𝗿𝗸𝗹𝗼𝗮𝗱𝘀 𝗙𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻. We presented the mission, scope, and early initiatives of our TAG, focused on defining and advancing practices and standards for cloud native workload execution environments and lifecycle management.
