About us

๐Ÿš€ Weโ€™ve Rebranded: Introducing KSUG.AI! ๐Ÿค–โ˜๏ธ๐Ÿณ

Formerly K8SUG, we are now KSUG.AI โ€“ KubeSmart & AI User Group ๐ŸŽ‰
As the cloud-native landscape continues to evolve, so has our communityโ€™s vision. Our focus has expanded to include not just Kubernetes, but also Multi-Cloud, Cloud Native architectures, and AI/ML workloads.

๐Ÿ“ Whether you're joining us in-person or online from anywhere in the world, KSUG.AI is the place for developers, architects, and platform engineers who are building the future with Kubernetes.

๐Ÿ’ฌ We dive deep into:

  • Multi-cloud and hybrid cloud migration
  • Real-world experiences with OpenShift, vanilla K8s, and managed Kubernetes (on-premises and in the cloud)
  • Building, securing, operating, and managing Kubernetes clusters
  • Backup and disaster recovery strategies for containers
  • And now, the intersection of Kubernetes with AI and ML

๐Ÿ‘ฅ Who should join?
Anyone using or planning to adopt Kubernetesโ€”whether you're in DevOps, Platform Engineering, SRE, or AI/MLโ€”will benefit from the shared knowledge and collaboration in this community.

๐ŸŒ Follow us and get involved!
๐Ÿ”ฅ Explore our community ecosystem

Our reach continues to grow:

Join the movement. Learn, share, and lead with KSUG.AI.
