Panel KCDs & CNCF Groups
summary
Community organizers describe launching and running Cloud Native meetups across Central America, detailing low‑attendance early events (three attendees at the first meetup), long travel between cities (up to four hours), and grassroots promotion (bedroom posts during rain). They cover practical tooling and training offered at events—K3d, containerd, Linkerd, Flux CD, Chaos Engineering, Prometheus—as well as CKA/CKAD‑style exam prep, CodeCloud practical lab courses, outreach/mentorship networks, university courses and community workshops that lead to hires and repeat contributors.
