Session
Over the past few years Linux based bootc images such as Bazzite have exploded in the most unlikely of places. Built with bootc and Fedora and with over 80,000 concurrent weekly users, users are now the ones redefining the category and driving the requirements. Gaming handhelds?
What does cloud native technology have to do with consumer facing technology? Where are all these gamers coming from, and why are all the cloud people smiling all the time?
In this talk I will discuss the initial donation of bootc to the CNCF, it's adoption by a community that didn't exist, and how we got here today. We will discuss the lessons learned by the Universal Blue community over five years of production bootc usage. Then we're going to talk about where you fit in.
There will be dinosaurs in this talk.
