Kubernetes at the Edge – Come See It in Action! - Xavier Avrillier & Antonia von den Driesch, Giant Swarm

Wednesday August 6, 2025 2:50pm - 3:20pm IST

Hall 2

Edge computing is still a fairly new area in the cloud native tech industry and is growing fast. As computing moves to the edge, what does Kubernetes look like beyond the cloud, and why does it matter?

This session features a live demo with a Raspberry Pi, camera, and real-time AI detection. Watch as our edge device identifies raised hands, sends data to a Kubernetes cluster via KubeEdge, and visualizes results instantly.

We'll explore:
- Edge Kubernetes challenges: connectivity, resources, security
- KubeEdge's approach to decentralized workloads
- Real-world applications across industries

Join us to see how AI, Kubernetes, and edge computing converge to enable powerful new possibilities.
