Premier developer event opens speaker proposals

San Francisco, December 15, 2016 — Cloud Foundry Foundation today announced its call for papers has opened for Summit Silicon Valley 2017, which will take place June 13-15 in Santa Clara, CA. Early Bird Registration and a speaking call for papers (CFP) are now open for the event. Sponsorship opportunities are available now for members only.

Cloud Foundry Summit Silicon Valley is the premier event for enterprise application developers. The event will focus on microservices and continuous delivery in all frameworks. As such, organizers seek speaking proposals on best practices and tips implementing microservices in cloud environments using various languages including Java, Javascript, Ruby, Node.js and Golang as well as Cloud Foundry user stories from the developer perspective.

Attendees will join other developers and CIOs to gain first-hand access to Cloud Foundry roadmaps, training and tutorials – and to see how others are using Cloud Foundry to support continuous innovation and application portability. Keynote speakers and full conference schedules will be announced in early Spring.

In 2016, nearly 1600 attendees from 24 countries showcased information from innovators and technical leaders at companies including Allstate, Comcast, Volkswagen and more. The Summit will host several breakout sessions including those that focus on Cloud Foundry core updates from project leads, Cloud Foundry experiments and developer community tracks, which will be named in the coming weeks.
