Why WOSCx2?

Serverless technologies are now at least nine years old. Serverless now is more than Function-as-a-Service and it is gaining in popularity:

Not just serverless computing but also serverless experience in context of DevOps and Platform Engineering
We want to evolve the workshop to include hybrid cloud environments, as well as edge and IoT devices. What will be next-gen computing?
How recent advances in generative AI, including Large Language Models (LLMs) and other types of Foundations Models (FMs) will change serverless?
New challenges to old concerns such as resource optimization, scaling, cost, monitoring, and ease of use.

How do we work together? Academia and industry? We need an open online forum for discussing the future of Serverless technologies?

How to make the “workshop” work for you:

Presenters should join 10 minutes before their session starts to test audio/video and screen sharing
Presenters have 10 minutes - they can leave some time for questions and/or continue discussions in #woscx2 discord channel (some talks will be video playback)

We will use beep sound 1 minute before end of time slot (9 minutes into the talk) and 2 beeps (quacks) 10 seconds before your time slot is finished (9m50s)
