Event Summary: DENT at KubeCon + Cloud Native Con + Open Source Summit + AI_dev 2024

By September 17, 2024Announcements, Blog

DENT recently served as a Silver Sponsor of Cloud Native Computing Foundation’s (CNCF) flagship event, KubeCon + Cloud Native Con + Open Source Summit + AI_dev 2024, held in Hong Kong. This was a unique opportunity for the DENT community to engage with some of the brightest minds and leading technologists in the open source and cloud native ecosystem. KubeCon is a nexus for open source developers, AI/ML specialists, and community leaders to collaborate and exchange ideas that will shape the future of open source technologies. 

DENT’s onsite presence included project staff and expert representatives from Edgecore Networks and Keysight Technologies. DENT joined the diverse open source ecosystem as an exhibitor, engaging with the community and offering switch demonstrations, courtesy of Edgecore Networks.

Attendees were able to explore DENT’s mission and the exciting technological advancements we’re spearheading. DENT is grateful for the opportunity to showcase its vendor-ready NOS offerings to a primarily Asia Pacific demographic that may have been unfamiliar with DENT and our mission. DENT cherishes any opportunity to demonstrate the value of disaggregated enterprise networks and share a glimpse into the future of DENT 4.0. 

The team also highlighted the innovative use of virtualization with the SAI virtual switch in DentOS, proving how DENT enables streamlined development and testing without the need for physical hardware. This solution is paving the way for enhanced flexibility and efficiency in networking, allowing developers and enterprises to simulate complex environments in a virtualized space.

What’s Next?

As we reflect on KubeCon 2024, we are excited to advance our work fostering collaboration across diverse sectors. DENT’s participation in this event reaffirms our commitment to driving the future of open networking and empowering developers and enterprises alike with cutting-edge solutions.
