With open-source cloud native projects driving more than $4.4 billion in economic impact, according to McKinsey, Priyanka Sharma, chair of the event host Cloud Native Computing Foundation. kicked off the event noting that Kubernetes has likely “realized its Linux moment,” with trillions of downloads and more than 220,000 development contributors involved.
