About
Kubernetes has become the universal control plane for modern infrastructure — and now AI is accelerating that evolution. As organizations adopt AI native architectures, scale model training and inference, and push toward more autonomous operations, Kubernetes is emerging as the backbone for running intelligent, distributed systems at scale.

“Kubernetes & AI: Powering the Next Generation of Intelligent Infrastructure” brings together cloud native leaders, platform engineers, and AI innovators to explore how Kubernetes is transforming to meet the demands of AI driven workloads. This session examines the new patterns emerging at the intersection of Kubernetes and AI — from GPU orchestration and model deployment to AI powered operations and self optimizing clusters.

Attendees will walk away with a clear understanding of how Kubernetes is evolving in the AI era, what new capabilities are required to support AI native applications, and how teams can prepare for a future where automation, intelligence, and orchestration converge.
