The heart of open source will be beating in Austin and streamed online for the Open Source Summit North America, taking place on 20-25 June 2022.

Open Source Summit is the premier event for open source developers, technologists, and community leaders. It’s a great venue to collaborate, share information, solve problems, and take open source innovation further. 

In this 2022 edition, Canonical will host multiple sessions, from very hands-on and technical talks to discussions exploring the trends that are shaping our industry.

We will address many of the familiar challenges: security, sustainability, and at-scale deployments. We will also delve into some exciting developments like building minimal container images with Ubuntu, or setting up your own micro cloud at home.

Will you be in Austin to attend the Open Source Summit too? Join our community team as well as our speakers on booth B20. We look forward to seeing you there!
