Last week, our team participated in KubeCon India, one of the largest gatherings of cloud-native professionals, developers, and open source community. There were over 3000 participants from across the globe, and the event highlighted the exponential growth of the cloud-native community in the region.

Nirmata team had a remarkable presence at the event as there were several sessions by our team members. We got an opportunity to have meaningful discussions with some of the industry leaders regarding their cloud-native journey, and how to prevent misconfigurations anywhere with policy as code. 

Kyverno, our open-source Kubernetes-native policy engine, had a remarkable presence at this year’s event. The team delivered several Kyverno talks, diving deep into its capabilities and use cases. 

These talks covered a wide range of topics, including:

• Policy Automation with Kyverno: How Kyverno enables seamless automation of governance policies across complex Kubernetes environments.
• Real-world Use Cases: Sharing success stories of organizations using Kyverno to enhance their cloud-native security and compliance.
• Best Practices for Policy Management: Practical tips and techniques for writing effective policies to improve cluster hygiene and enforce standards.

The level of engagement and feedback from the community was truly inspiring. It’s clear that Kyverno plays an integral role in helping organizations adopt Kubernetes confidently and securely.

Following KubeCon, the Nirmata team convened for a 2-day team meet in Bangalore, where Our CEO, Jim Bugwadia, energized the team by sharing the company’s vision, setting the tone for an exciting 2025. Our cutting-edge plans in policy-as-code and security are something we can’t wait to bring to our customers! Beyond work, we celebrated shared achievements, brainstormed new ideas, and strengthened bonds through several team-building activities.
