This year's KubeCon + CloudNativeCon EU is a wrap! The conference was virtual but still packed with 4 days of updates, trends and use cases from all the different projects, sponsors, vendors and end users that make up the cloud native ecosystem.
Read this blog post for a summary of the main topics and trends:
How the virtual event worked out
The top news and the most interesting projects that are gaining traction
The increased focus on CNCF end users
Diversity in the open source community
ClusterAPI
GitOps
Telco grade Kubernetes networking / edge native (K3s, Longhorn)
Storage (Vitess, TiKV, Longhorn, Rook, OpenEBS, NATS)
Security (Trivy, OPA, Falco, SOPS, SPIFFE, SPIRE)
I especially like the security parts. SOPS integration that lets you store encrypted credentials and the like in YAML files seems like such a cool way to get the benefits of GitOps without sacrificing security.

Edited to add link to https://github.com/mozilla/sops and to also mention my surprise at that Mozilla is behind SOPS. :)
