ArgoCon
Vendor-neutral Argo-focused Event
ArgoCon is designed to foster collaboration, discussion, and knowledge sharing on the Argo Project, which consists of four projects: Argo CD, Argo Workflows, Argo Rollouts, and Argo Events. The event is vendor-neutral and is being organized by the Cloud Native Computing Foundation Argo Community.
Topics in the past have included getting started with Argo, scaling and managing Argo, lessons learned from production deployments, technical sessions, and thought leadership.
When we started the Argo Project in 2016, we didn't expect the project could be so widely adopted by the industry and become the de facto application delivery tool for Kubernetes.
Each KubeCon, Argo end-users and friends showed great interest to have a dedicated event for much deeper conversation about the project. Last year, we were able to organize the first ArgoCon virtually. The number of participants has exceeded our expectations - 3,893 registrants with 1,800 unique attendees over the day from 90 countries and more than 1500 companies. From 2022, we are happy to host the first ever on-site ArgoCon located at the heart of Silicon Valley with an additional virtual setup.
