The field of cloud native computing continues to grow at a rapid clip. A recent survey commissioned by the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) had found that there are now 6.5 million “cloud native” developers worldwide, up by 9 million developers from the same time a year ago. The CNCF’s “2020 State of the Cloud Native Report” also reported that 7 million of these cloud native developers are using Kubernetes, and 4 million are using serverless architectures/cloud functions. And, about 60% of backend developers now use containers.

The KubeCon event itself attracted nearly 18,000 registrations, and the CNCF expects more than 20,000 to attend by the end of the week.
