SOME EXCITING HOT TOPICS
While there are a lot of hot topics that will be covered, Confidential computing is at the top of my list. This keynote topic will showcase a demo of Kata Containers’ Confidential Computing abilities and there will also be a talk from Divya K Konoor and Jin Chen, as they discuss using Confidential Computing with OpenStack. Another hot topic is Data Sovereignty, which is a key concern in a lot of regions. That being said, I’ll definitely be attending Anja Strunk’s talk on Gaia-X. With this talk about computing, I almost forgot to mention Sustainable computing. I’m very excited to learn what’s new in Nova power management and sustainability from Sylvain Bauza and René Ribaud. Lastly, we’ll cover how Artificial Intelligence drives infrastructure requirements, including a keynote explaining how NVIDIA uses OpenStack Swift internally.
