Outlook to KubeCon + CloudNativeCon Europe 2026 - Meet Servala in Amsterdam
From 23 - 26 March 2026, the cloud native community meets again in Amsterdam. For Servala, this is where ecosystem, sovereignty and platform engineering come together.
And this year, there is something you cannot miss.
Spot the Shirt - The Servala Community Edition
At KubeCon Europe 2026, we are bringing the new Servala Community T-Shirt.
It represents the ecosystem behind Servala - The Sovereign App Store. Because sovereignty is not built by a single vendor - it is built by collaboration.
Featured on the shirt are partners and community players such as:
If you see the shirt - come talk to us about sovereign cloud marketplaces, ecosystem platforms and open standards.
Open Sovereign Cloud Day - Sovereignty in Practice
Digital sovereignty is moving from strategy slides into real architectures.
At Open Sovereign Cloud Day, practitioners discuss how to design and operate compliant, open and resilient cloud native infrastructures across Europe.
Servala connects sovereign cloud providers, ISVs and enterprise platforms through a marketplace model based on open standards and automation. It turns infrastructure into an ecosystem - and ecosystems into real value for developers and organizations.
If you care about:
Avoiding vendor lock-in
Operating compliant workloads
Connecting sovereign cloud providers with software vendors
Extending your internal developer platform with an ecosystem
then Open Sovereign Cloud Day is the right place to meet.
K8up in the Project Pavilion - Kiosk P-24A
Servala and VSHN are deeply rooted in open source. One example is our CNCF Sandbox project K8up.
You can meet the maintainers here:
Project - K8up
Location - Halls 1-5 | Project Pavilion
Kiosk Shift - Tuesday 10:45 - 14:40
Format - Single Shift Only - Sandbox
Reliable backup and restore is a key building block of sovereign architectures. At the kiosk, we are happy to discuss:
Backup strategies for sovereign clusters
S3-compatible storage across European providers
Disaster recovery in Kubernetes and OpenShift
Automation and compliance requirements
Come by on Tuesday and let us dive into the technical details.
