CAMBRIDGE, MA | September 27, 2021 StormForge, the leader in cloud-native application performance testing and resource optimization, today announced a variety of activities planned in advance of and during KubeCon 2021 North America.
Hosted by StormForge’s Noah Abrahams, the StormForge Fireside Chat series debuts today and runs through this Friday, October 1 and features notable guests such as VP of Product – Giant Swarm, Puja Abbasi and CNCF Ambassador, Dan “POP” Papandrea. This series will give listeners insight into how the Kubernetes and Cloud Native ecosystem are identifying, addressing, and solving their needs and pain points and those of their consumers. It will also shed some light on what folks can expect to see at KubeCon. A full list of guests is included below and guests can download anywhere they get their podcasts.
“I have followed with great interest the trajectory and innovations at StormForge. Matt Provo and team have built tooling that allows great Kubernetes resource efficiencies that benefit the Kubernetes community as a whole”, said Dan “POP” Papandrea. “The company’s perspective on sustainable computing and efficiency is an important one, especially in today’s cloud environments. I’m so happy to support StormForge and its podcast series.”
Also announced today is Abrahams’ KubeCon session, “A Safari of Kubernetes in its Natural Habitat,” which takes place October 13 at 11:55 am PT. Abrahams will take attendees on a journey to visit some of the inhabitants of the Cloud Native savanna, including its natural predators. Community members will learn the warning cries of an ever alert Prometheus and watch as the cluster is hunted by a gaggle of red teamers, while they all try to drink from the same data lake. This talk will be a whimsical introduction into the daily life of Kubernetes and production deployment challenges faced by all of us.
“Kubernetes has become the de facto standard platform for container orchestration. The container technology is spreading like wildfire and we constantly get questions like, ‘what are some challenges when using containers in production; where is the technology headed; how do I optimize our environment; what are the pitfalls and best practices; and what does the Kubernetes journey look like?’” said Amy Medeiros, senior vice president of marketing. “That’s why we’re showcasing our conversations with the leading technologists from across the ecosystem in our Fireside Chats podcast in advance of the KubeCon event. We’ll learn how we can all build a more efficient and sustainable technology and ecosystem so that enterprises can thrive.”
“The Kubernetes ecosystem is vibrant but the best of the ecosystem is the community and its people,” said Noah Abrahams, StormForge. “That’s why we’re showcasing our conversations with leading technologists from across that ecosystem in our Fireside Chats podcast in advance of the KubeCon event. We’ll learn how we can all build a more efficient and sustainable technology and ecosystem so that enterprises can thrive.”
Today’s DevOps teams tune cloud-native applications by using a trial-and-error approach that is both labor intensive and requires a deep level of Kubernetes expertise. It’s also ineffective, many times resulting in applications that cost twice as much to run as necessary while still risking poor performance. StormForge addresses Kubernetes resource efficiency by using machine learning to reduce costs, improve performance, and accelerate innovation.

Attendees can join StormForge at KubeCon either virtually or in-person. Onsite attendees can find the StormForge team at Booth #S65 to learn more about how StormForge delivers automatic Kubernetes resource efficiency at scale, while virtual attendees can stop by the virtual booth. Product demos, executive briefings and games and prizes will be available to all attendees.
