21.2 million developers now build with cloud native, and nearly 50,000 contributed back over the past year.
Day 3 of KubeCon + CloudNativeCon North America proved that while AI agents accelerate software, the ecosystem is still built by humans and engineered to evolve.

“What would you build tomorrow that you couldn’t imagine building yesterday?”
On Day 3 at KubeCon + CloudNativeCon, @linsun_unc demonstrated five AI agents collaborating to shoot, trace, and publish a drone short film to GitHub using Argo CD and MCP.

Managed Agents in Gemini API is now supporting Agent Substrate. We enable running Managed Agent environments as Agent Substrate actors. This connects the Gemini ecosystem and frontier agents with your own cluster, storage layer, policies, and guardrails. #KubeCon

"I can't wait to see what we build together next."
On the KubeCon + CloudNativeCon keynote stage, Jago Macleod and Shaun Hopper unpacked how GKE Frontier and @Meta run massive-scale TPU and GPU AI workloads by merging fleet-qualified releases with upstream features in days.

Frank Li from @StepFun_ai and Joe Zhou from @JuicedataInc are showing how StepFun scaled its multimodal AI storage platform on Kubernetes, JuiceFS, and TiKV.
With 10,000+ concurrent JuiceFS mounting points, they cut safetensors read amplification by 71% and boosted read-only metadata operations by 50% across training, checkpointing, and inference.

Over 20,000 internal apps at @salesforce run on @heroku, built by everyone from sales teams to engineers using AI tools.
On the KubeCon + CloudNativeCon stage, Shiva Nimmagadda and Brandon Schoen show how @kubernetesio, Cloud Native Buildpacks, and @opentelemetry power that scale without adding infrastructure overhead.

The cloud native ecosystem can absorb this Agentic shift, and grow stronger because of it. And it continues to drive the industry and the world forward with powerful, high quality, accessible software & engineering. Great message. Thanks @jeefy & @CloudNativeFdn!

Jeffrey Sica (@jeefy) opened the main stage with a reflection on where software engineering is today: moving fast, constantly evolving. His take is that the field is having a “Final Fantasy” moment, and he isn’t worried.
The reason is right there in the CNCF landscape: hundreds of projects, and people behind every one of them. In the last 12 months, more than 15,000 contributors showed up to build cloud native, and companies keep building here to give those contributors the tools to innovate.
Cloud native is built by humans and engineered to evolve.

First ever @CloudNativeFdn KubeCon talk is done!
Ngl, this was always a big dream of mine and I could not be more happier!
